E
Non essential info is correctly punuctated and parallelism is maintained

Forests also supply...and provide


A- That is used as non essential modifier

All other options do not offer parallelism or make the essential info as subordinate

IMO E.

the non-essential clause is between the commas. if u omit this non-essential clause and process the entire sentence, the parallelism comes through.

There is no Verb in C, its fragment.

E - Provide acts as a verb and it is required

Hope that helps.

Nops...Can you please provide how you see the fragements , i am listing below the two options:

Cpharmaceuticals and, as sources of building material and firewood that are providing
Epharmaceuticals and, as sources of building material and firewood, provide

Where you see the fragements? One says are providing another provide..

Yes I got the error in C, it is reference made by that: See below

pharmaceuticals and, as sources of building material and firewood that are providing

This is the problem, that is referring to building material and firewood rather than the true referrant...its not the building material and firewood though that provides job oppurtunity..? so C is incorrect

'that' starts the dependent clause.

for a sentence there should be atleast 1 independent clause.

thats why I said C is a fragment.

Pls let me know your thoughts.
