Eliminate A and B.
A conjunction such as and must serve to connect PARALLEL FORMS.
C: compounds also FOUND in beta carotene...and INHIBIT the formation of plaque
E: compounds also FOUND in beta carotene...and they INHIBIT the formation of plaque
In these answer choices, found serves as a ADJECTIVE describing compounds.
What KIND of compounds?
Compounds FOUND in beta carotene.
In contrast, inhibit serves not as a modifier but as a VERB.
What ACTION is performed by compounds?
They INHIBIT the formation of plaque.
A conjunction such as and cannot serve to connect a MODIFIER (found) to a VERB (inhibit).
Eliminate C and E.
The correct answer is D.
A that-clause serving as a MODIFIER can refer to a singular or plural noun.my query isnt that used for singular
SC10 in the OG12: a NETWORK THAT KEEPS the brain from getting too hot
SC4 in the OG12: the TIDES THAT HAVE SWEPT through history
When that serves to make a COMPARISON, its referent must be SINGULAR:
THE CAR produced by Company X is faster than THAT produced by Company Y.
