Which of the following sentences contains a subject-verb agreement error?

Proper nouns, such as "Kansas City Royals," should be capitalized. However, "jersey," a common noun, should not be capitalized unless it begins a sentence. Thus, Option C uses the correct capitalization for the team and keeps "jersey" lowercase.

A complex sentence contains an independent and at least one dependent clause, as in option B.

"Dogs" is plural and requires the plural verb "run," not "runs." The other sentences have correct agreement.

Option B correctly uses commas to separate the list and the nonrestrictive clause. The apostrophe in "United States'" indicates possession correctly. Other options misuse colons and semicolons or omit necessary commas.

The prefix "ir-" means "not," and the suffix "-ible" means "able to be." Combined, "irresistible" means "not able to be resisted." This explains the meaning of the word accurately.

: For a singular noun, add apostrophe + s to show possession: "cat's toy." "Cats'" would be plural possessive.

Passive voice occurs when the subject receives the action, as in "The exams were graded." The other sentences are active voice.

Option C correctly includes a comma after the introductory phrase and before the coordinating conjunction "but," separating two independent clauses. Proper punctuation enhances clarity and improves sentence structure.

Option D provides a broad overview and sets the stage for a detailed discussion, which is typical of an introductory sentence. The other options are more specific and suit body paragraphs rather than introductions.

The prefix "circum" is Latin for "around." In the word "circumnavigation," it refers to traveling all the way around something, typically the globe. This prefix is found in words like "circumference" and "circumvent," all of which involve a circular or surrounding motion.
