Which sentence is punctuated correctly?

A dangling modifier is a phrase or clause that does not logically modify any word in the sentence. Example: "My brother had an old truck that sat by the garage that needed paint." The phrase "that needed paint" is a dangling modifier because it does not clearly modify any word in the sentence.

It is unclear whether it is the truck or the garage needed paint.

This order beginspresents the initial experiments, thenthe discovery, after which it discusses the research project,introduces the beliefand ends with the classification. While it provides the context for the belief, it starts with the discovery, which may confuse the reader as it doesn't establish the topic first.

The paragraph is as follows:

"Initially, we constructed experiments that explored new relationships among six major systems of the human body: circulatory, digestive, muscular, nervous, reproductive, and respiratory. Then, we discovered, through a series of curious events and calculations, that these systems were all intricately involved in a kind of psychic economy. Our experimental research project has focused on what we call the Psycho-Physical Performance Scale. We believe that this work will revolutionize our understanding of human behavior. Therefore, we ultimately chose to classify different triggers of human actions and productions according to these new relationships."

"Ran" is the correct past tense of "run." The word "runned" is incorrect, "running" is the present participle, and "rant" is a different word.

The sentence "He liked to cook at home, but she preferred to eat at restaurants." correctly uses a compound sentence structure. It consists of two independent clauses "He liked to cook at home" and "she preferred to eat at restaurants" joined by the coordinating conjunction "but".

This sentence correctly uses a comma before "so" to connect two ideas. The other sentences have missing or incorrect punctuation.

The word that defines "subterranean" based on the prefix "sub-" is B. Underground.

Choice A: In this option, the subject "The boys and girl" is a compound subject that includes both "boys" and "girl." The mistake here lies in the verb "is," which is singular. Since the subject is plural due to the presence of "boys," the correct verb should be "are."

Choice B: This choice correctly follows subject-verb agreement rules. The subject "The boy" is singular, so the verb "come" is appropriately singular. Similarly, for "the girls," which is plural, the verb "come" is used in its plural form.

Choice C: Here, the subject "The boys" and "the girls" are connected by "or," indicating a singular choice. However, the verb "sings" is in the singular form, which is incorrect for plural subjects. To maintain agreement, the correct verb should be "sing."

Choice D: In this option, the compound subject "The boys and girl" is again presented. However, the verb "visits" is singular, not in agreement with the plural subject. To ensure proper subject-verb agreement, the verb "visit" should be used.

The correct use of "fewer" and "less" is important in proper grammar and usage. "Fewer" is used when referring to items that can be counted, while "less" is used for quantities that cannot be counted. In this case, "people" is a countable noun, so "fewer" is the correct word to use. Additionally, "effect" is the correct noun to use in this sentence, as it refers to the result or consequence of the action, while "affect" is a verb meaning to influence or have an impact on.

A topic sentence is the main idea or point of a paragraph. It serves as a guide to the reader, telling them what the paragraph is going to be about. A topic sentence should be clear, concise, and focused on a single idea, and it should summarize the main point of the paragraph. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

Option B is the correct sentence, which reads "The building's height was exceeded by its width." This sentence employs standard English spelling, where "exceeded" is spelled correctly, and the apostrophe in "it's" is incorrect, as it should be "its" without an apostrophe.
