Answer:

4). The Mississippi River, which is over 2300 miles long, is the second-longest river in the United States.

Explanation:

As per the question, option 4 i.e. 'The Mississippi River, which is over 2300 miles long, is the second-longest river in the United States' most appropriately revises the given sentence to rectify the punctuation error. It <u>correctly employs comma(,) before and the after 'participial phrase' ('which is over 2300 miles long') that involves non-essential description and removing this would not affect the basic meaning of the sentence</u>. Therefore, the comma separates or offsets this non-essential description from the sentence. Thus, <u>option 4</u> is the correct answer.

Please help!! Which sentence does not contain any errors? A. Let's each try a bite of Wendys' vegetable dish. B. Whose red socks
mojhsa [17]
A is wrong because "Wendys'" should be "Wendy's", because the possessive isn't plural.

C is wrong because "Its" should be "It's", because "It's" is a contraction for "It is."

D is wrong because the apostrophe should be after "judges", not "statements." Statements do not own anything, but the judges own the statements.

B is the correct answer.
