OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I cant give you the direct answer so just tell me what you know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, desultory means, acking a plan, purpose, or enthusiasm. That wouldn't be correct if you put that in the sentence of A bright red nose is the desultory feature of the Old World monkey, the mandrill. But salient means, most noticeable or important. Now wouldn't this make more sense, A bright red nose is the salient feature of the Old World monkey, the mandrill. ?
