Which sentence is punctuated correctly? My father loved talking about history, particularly: the Civil War, the Cold War, and the Revolutionary War. There were several scientific processes I wanted to learn about such as, photosynthesis, diffusion, and osmosis. The only states that Marina had yet to visit were: Colorado, Wyoming, North Dakota, and Rhode Island. When studying mythology, I learned about several gods and goddesses: Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Hercules.

Answers

The correct answer is - When studying mythology, I learned about several gods and goddesses: Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Hercules.

This is the only sentence which is punctuated correctly because the first part (before the list) ends abruptly; it is obvious that something needs to be placed there. In this case, that is a colon.

The other sentences have leading words (particularly, such as, were) that don't require a colon after them.

Answer:

D. When studying mythology, I learned about several gods and goddesses: Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Hercules

D.
Have you told, Bradley my brother, from Seattle?

Answers

C. Suzie, my best friend, is also an amazing athlete.
It is the sentence that does not contain any errors in comma usage.

Usage of commas
1) to separate items in a series
2) to separate coordinating adjectives
3) to separate two independent clauses (compound sentence)
4) to separate the introductory words from the independent clause.
5) to separate nonessential words, phrases, and clauses

* All choices contain an "appositive". An appositive renames the subject.

My best friend is an appositive for Suzie.Thus it is enclosed by commas to separate it from the rest of the sentence.

Student Council expects that everyone participate in Sunglasses Day.What is the form of the underlined verb?
subjunctive
imperative
indicative
passive
underlined is participate

Answers

Answer: A) Subjunctive.

Explanation: Subjunctive is a mood of verbs or a verb form that denotes something that is not a fact but a possibility or a desire. In the given sentence "Student Council expects that everyone participate in Sunglasses Day" we can see a clear example of subjunctive mood in the underlined verb "participate" because it isn't a fact that everyone will participate, it is just something that could happen.

The word (should) participate is used as a subjunctive in this sentence.
