The 1957 chevy nomad is one of the finest vehicles ever made my mother drives one that is in perfect conditionwhich sentence error does the text above make? comma splice fused sentence sentence fragment independent clause

The correct answer is B. Fused sentence

Explanation:

In grammar, a fused sentence is type of error that occurs as two independent clauses or clauses that express a complete sentence are placed or fused together, which means there is no a conjunction or a punctuation mark such as a point (.) or semicolon (;) between them to separate them but they run-on together. This is the case of the sentence "The 1957 Chevy nomad is one of the finest vehicles ever made my mother drives one that is in perfect condition" that is divided into sentences "The 1957 Chevy nomad is one of the finest vehicles ever made" and "my mother drives one that is in perfect condition" and therefore an element between them should be placed, but as neither a punctuation mark or a semicolon was used this is an example of fused sentence.

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
