Question
A poem of nearly 12,000 lines _ it tells a series of stories _ beginning with the creation of the world_ Think about what punctuation you would put in the THIRD blank. Why did you choose the punctuation you chose for the THIRD blank? abecause nothing should be added between an independent clause followed by a dependent clause bbecause it is a dependent clause followed by an independent clause cbecause nothing should be added at the end dbecause it is a prepositional phrase followed by an independent clause ebecause nothing should be added between a dependent clause followed by an independent clause fbecause it is an independent clause followed by a dependent clause gbecause it is the end of the sentence hbecause it is an independent clause followed by an unrelated independent clause ibecause it is an independent clause followed by a related independent clause
Solution
The correct answer is g because it is the end of the sentence. The third blank is the end of the sentence, so it should be punctuated with a period to indicate the end of the thought.
