Solution

The correct choice is B) biologist Gerald Kooyman, who. This choice correctly uses commas to set off the nonrestrictive clause "who asserts it 'expanded the range of possibilities for penguin survival strategies in extreme conditions.'" The other choices either incorrectly use a comma before Gerald Kooyman's name (A and D) or omit the necessary comma after his name (C).

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:In 2022 Dr. Peter Fretwell and a team of scientists studied the loss of sea ice in an Antarctic region and how that loss impacted emperor penguins’ breeding patterns.They recorded a 100% loss of sea ice in the area west of the Antarctic Peninsula.This loss had wide-reaching impacts on whether or not chicks from the nearby emperor penguin colonies would survive.In 2022, there was 100% loss of sea ice in the area and the chicks had a 20% survival rate.In 2018, there was a 40% loss of sea ice in the area and the chicks had a 70% survival rate.The student wants to summarize the study.
