The error is supposed to be "A new study by European scientists suggest." However, you have already posted the correct version, with the verb "suggests."

<h3>Subject-verb agreement</h3>

A verb that refers to a certain subject in a sentence should agree with that subject. In other words, if the subject is singular, the verb should also be singular. If it is plural, the verb should also be plural.

This question refers to the sentences, "A new study by European scientists suggest that teamwork may be more common in the animal world than previously suspected. Researchers in England and Switzerland discovered that eels and fish work together to hunt prey in coral reefs."

The error we can find is in the verb "suggest." Since it refers to "study", which is a singular noun, the correct form of the verb should be "suggests."

Serena Williams' catsuit controversy evokes the<br> battle over women wearing shorts
monitta

Answer and Explanation:

"Serena Williams' catsuit controversy evokes the battle over women wearing shorts" is an article that offers a discussion of the issue surrounding sportswear worn by female athletes. The article discusses how these clothes are judged and sexualized, when it aims to help the athlete and make her comfortable during matches. The author reinforces that the clothes used by male athletes do not suffer the same judgment, even if they are used for the same reasons.

A part of the article that reinforces this is: “Women who did wear athletic garb were supposed to keep out of the public eye because it was deemed unfeminine and, yes, immodest.”

Read the excerpt from Act III of Hamlet.
Flura [38]

Answer: D) he practices deception.

In this excerpt, Polonius makes a deal with Claudius. They decide that Polonius will hide in Gertrude's chamber, in order to hear the conversation between Hamlet and his mother. He not only wants to find out what they talk about, but also wants to prevent Gertrude from being too partial to Hamlet. The fact that Polonius practices deception in this way makes him a complex character.
