I believe the answer is either: compound direct object OR compound predicate nominative

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

I think compound DO, sorry if not right

OpenStudy (blank ):

Could you please tell me why you think that?

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

Well, what is a direct object?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really

OpenStudy (blank ):

A direct object is an object (noun or pronoun) that receives the action.

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

I think that its actually a Compound direct object because it modifies the subject.

OpenStudy (blank ):

Yeah but there isn't any verbs modifying "analysis" or "criticism"

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

Your probably right :)

OpenStudy (blank ):

unless "was" is the verb modifying the nouns

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

No, no. Your response makes more sense than mine :)

OpenStudy (blank ):

I'm not sure which one it is. Been here for an hour. Why is this so confusing?

OpenStudy (blank ):

That page says that "A predicate nominative is a subject complement, a word or group of words that follows a linking verb or verb phrase such as is, are, was, has been, and can be."

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

Dang, wish I could stay, but my computer is about to die. Hope you find the answer :)

OpenStudy (blank ):

Thanks for trying to help.

OpenStudy (nevermind_justschool):

Yeah, sorry I couldn't figure it out:(
