The correct answer is C. Abbreviate

Explanation:

The period, also called full stop is one of the most common punctuation marks, this is used at the end of text, paragraphs or ideas to introduce a long pause and mark complete thoughts, But besides this use, the period is also used as part of ellipsis (...), in numbers and to abbreviate words which refers to shortening words, in this case most abbreviations that include the first/last letters of a word should end with a period and in some cases abbreviations that only use initial letters also include period. For example, the word "Mister" is commonly abbreviated as "Mr.", the word "December" is abbreviated as "Dec." and the term "United States of America" can be abbreviated as "U.S.A." Therefore, it can be concluded a period is also used to abbreviate words.

A code of Ethics is the framework of rules and regulations, almost the guideline, that an institution, or organization, may have, to help its members or workers choose the correct actions to take when facing a dilemma or a problem, in accordance with the principles and the mission and vision of the institution or organization. Although mostly seen in organization, there are also codes of ethics that are personal and these help an individual decide the right way to act in difficult situations. In the case of this scenario, there is a huge problem; the reporter is faced with her relationship to the person being investigated and about who she must report. Because of this familial relationship between reporter and investigated, the reporter should, C, tell the editor-in-chief about her relationship to the pilot, and ask that the story be assigned to another. This is the ethical thing to do because it allows the superior to know that there will be a conflict of interests and a possible bias, whether the reporter wants to or not. It also allows the chief to decide whether the connection between the two will affect the reporter´s abilities or not.

Which of the following sentences with introductory elements use correct punctuation? Check all that apply. At the request of the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

CORRECT: At the request of the governor’s office, the economic science lab produced various forecasting models.

CORRECT: When the account manager returns from lunch, we’ll double-check the meeting time.

Explanation:

An introductory phrase is like a clause, but it doesn’t have its own subject and verb; it relies on the subject and verb in the main clause. It sets the stage for the main part of the sentence. When you use an introductory phrase in your writing, you’re signaling to the reader that the central message of the sentence is yet to come.

Introductory clause: After the meeting was over, the staff was exhausted. Introductory phrase: While getting ready for bed, Susan heard a knock at the door.

There are several types of introductory phrases, including prepositional phrases and appositive phrases. Sometimes a comma is necessary after an introductory phrase. Other times, the comma is optional, and there are also times when a comma should not be used.

It is important to note that a comma should always be used if the sentence could be misinterpreted otherwise.
