In the statement, "Calvin sold his", which sentence component is missing?A. A verb
B. A noun
C. An object
D. A subject

Answers

The answer is C. An object.

 The sentence is incomplete because the subject (Calvin)  sold (verb) something (it doesn't mention what), which is the verbal complement that is missing. In this case it is a direct object.  The other options:A. A verb shows an action or state of being; B. A noun names something and D. The subject does or is something.

It would be C. an object

Calvin in this sentence is the subject (and noun) in the sentence.
Sold is the verb, written in past tense.

Which sentence is written correctly? Summer produce, such as heirloom tomatoes, can be used to create delicious salads. The hotel in the business district, has many accommodations, for its corporate visitors. The discovery of gold led to population growth, in the West, during the late 1800s. Restaurants must adhere to, health department guidelines, in order to obtain a permit.

Answers

Answer: A) Summer produce, such as heirloom tomatoes, can be used to create delicious salads.

Explanation: From the given sentences, the one that is written correctly is the first one: Summer produce, such as heirloom tomatoes, can be used to create delicious salads, because it uses commas before and after the subordinate clause "such as heirloom tomatoes." The other sentences are incorrect because a comma should never separate a subject from its verb ("The hotel in the business district, has many accommodations"), a verb from its object ("...population growth, in the West"), or a preposition from its object (Restaurants must adhere to, health department guidelines).

Summer produce, such as heirloom tomatoes, can be used to create delicious salads.
