Answer:

B). Their.

Explanation:

As per the question, the word 'their' completes the given sentence correctly as it is syntactically and semantically the correct pronoun to denote the plural antecedent 'Jon and Tucker' and accomplish the meaning and grammar of the sentence appropriately. The final sentence reads as:

'Jon and Tucker walked for miles in the hot sun, carrying <u>their</u> heavy backpacks with them.'

The other options are incorrect as they fail to accomplish the meaning of the sentence appropriately. Option A('theirs) exemplifies the inappropriate pronoun to replace the antecedent while option C i.e. 'they'are' signifies contraction merely. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

How does a passive voice change the meaning
kumpel [21]

Answer:

In general, the active voice makes your writing stronger, more direct, and, you guessed it, more active. The subject is something, or it does the action of the verb in the sentence. With the passive voice, the subject is acted upon by some other performer of the verb.

Can someone add on to what what I wrote please!
inessss [21]

Answer and Explanation:

After looking at the image carefully, I truly and humbly think you should change your answer. This image does not concern lack of fish. Notice how small is the block of ice on which the polar bear stands is. It's certainly about global warming. Therefore, in order to help you rewrite your answer, I'll provide you with a paragraph:

<u />

<u>The cartoon in which a polar bear stares at its own reflection sends a powerful message without using any words. The bear is standing on a tiny block of ice, which can barely fit its four paws, and its reflection in the water is a skeleton. These two details draw attention to global warming and its devastating effects. Polar bears may very well become extinct once their habitat no longer exists due to the polar caps melting. What we see in the image is the bear staring at its own future - death is what awaits ahead, if man does nothing to prevent it. I believe the image is shocking because it puts together present and future, showing the bear as it is now, showing how the world is already changing, and showing what is about to happen. Even though we know about it, seeing it drawn this way, the skeleton staring back at the bear, conveys a sense of urgency and sadness.</u>
