The answer is B: As an Adverbial Prase.   A <em>Prepositional Phrase</em> includes a preposition, its object and its modifiers. The Prepositional Phrases can function as <em>adverbial phrases or adjective phrases</em> to modify other words in the sentence. In the example, " Hearing the key<em> in the lock</em>" and "...dashed <em>to</em> <em>the front door</em>." in and to are <em>prepositions </em>that are used to form the two prepositional phrases: "in the lock" and "to the front door."

Answer:

The underlined prepositional phrase "to the front door" is used in the sentence as an adverbial phrase

Explanation:

This example is following one of the structures to make an adverbial phrase, which starts with a preposition (in this case "to") the phrase together can be considered an adverb of place, the other three options are not correct because they require different elements in the structure to be considered that kind of phrase.

Which of the following explains why language can be called arbitrary? Select all that apply.
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Language can be called arbitrary because, Words do not inherently resemble the objects that they represent and The word chair does not resemble the object it represents.

Explanation:

Languages are Arbitrary means that there is no relationship between the words that we use and the natural meaning of that particular word.

Words do not inherently resemble the objects that they represent. There are certain words which might be meaningless to some, but those are the exact words which are understood by many. Say for example, the word ‘chair’ doesn’t necessarily resemble the object it represents. It doesn’t tell us anything about what exactly the kind or type of object it is referring to.

Questions 1–5: In the following sentences, identify and label the simple predicate and simple subject. 1. The three boxers met a
Crazy boy [7]
1. The three boxers met at the gym. Simple subject is a part of the sentence which tells us who or what performs the action in a sentence. Simple predicate tells as what subject does in a sentence. I've put simple subject and simple predicate in this sentence in bold. The tree boxers is a subject, because it tells us who performed the action and tells us what the subject did.

2. <span>Amy took her dog to the veterinarian. Amy is the simple subject because it tells us who did something in the sentence without and it doesn't include any modifiers, took is the simple predicate because it tells us what Amy did and it also doesn't include any modifiers.</span>

3. <span>Luke boarded the airplane. According to the rule mentioned in the first question, Luke is the simple subject because it answers the question who performed the action and there are no modifiers; boarded is the simple predicate which answers the question what the subject did and there are no modifiers.</span>

4. <span>Rachel redecorated her dining room. Rachel is the simple subject, because it tells us who redecorated the dining room; decorated is the simple predicate because it tells us what Rachel did and there are no modifiers. 
</span>
5. <span>The lightning struck Bill’s house. The lightning is the simple subject because it answers the question what struck Bill's house; struck is the simple predicate because it answers the question what the lightning did to the Bill's house and there are no modifiers.</span>
