Find the error with subject-verb agreement. Select the incorrect verb and type it correctly.
maw [93]

Answer:

The error is in the use of "was" before the subjects "pollution and disease".

The incorrect verb is "was".

The correct sentence will be <em>"pollution and disease were to blame for the decimation of the Chesapeake Bay oyster population in the 1990s"</em>.

Explanation:

When we say the subject-verb agreement, then it means that the helping verb used is dependent on the number of the subject(s). This means that if the subject is singular, then the verb will be singular, and if it is plural, then the verb also becomes plural.

Now, taking the given sentence, we can see that the subjects are <em>"pollution and disease"</em>, which is plural in nature. The use of "and" makes it plural, thereby making the use of the singular verb "was" wrong.

Thus, the correct sentence will be <u><em>"pollution and disease were to blame for the decimation of the Chesapeake Bay oyster population in the 1990s".</em></u>

Can you use inquire on asking about a thing instead of a person?
swat32

Answer:

No, you can't use "inquire" like this. You could say:

"The enterprise asked the authority for the relevant information." -- This does not actually say that they obtained it, however. The authority may have refused. Note that you ask about a subject, but you ask for information.

"The enterprise obtained the relevant information from the authority." -- This normally implies that they obtained it in response to an inquiry or request, so you don't really need to say that separately

Though the fall from the monkey bars was minor, the student visited the clinic to be checked out by the attending physician for
tester [92]

Checked out

Checked out is not domain specific language. When talking about medical visits, checked out is an informal term for having a medical evaluation. A check-up is a routine procedure done yearly that is normally called a physical in the medical field. A fall is a fall. There is no other domain specific vocabulary that can change this. Clinic and injuries are all typical domain specific terms that can be applied in medical situations.
