OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's not A. Remember the subject is "vase"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH! is it c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

middle eastern is the subject, is it not?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it seems to make perfect since

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well no, it's still Saudi Arabia. It's confusing I know, but the reason why "flowers" in the other sentence isn't the subject is because it's within the vase.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WHAT!?!? that is confusing, let me try once more real quick

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, b does not make much since, so it has got to be d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope. It's B. The meteor shower is the subject.

OpenStudy (tinylittlehelper):

Well, I'll say that it is D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought there had to be a comma after shower

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not what we're looking for though. We're looking for an agreeance between a subject and a verb.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OKAY! i got yu

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
