Which sentence does not correct this run-on sentence? Japan produces many exports cars are one of them. A. Japan produces many exports, and cars are one of them. B. Japan produces many exports; cars are one of them. C. Japan produces many exports. Cars are one of them. D. Japan produces many exports, cars are one of them.
which one do you think it is?
c
Try again. :P
a
@Vianne You have to tell her why it isn't C.
do that with a
Ahh, ok.. It's not C, because I'm guessing they want it a full sentence instead of it being broken into 2? Compound sentences. :P
A is a fixed sentence. So we don't want the run-on sentence to be fixed. C is also fixed in a certan way.
certain* We d
They're asking for us to pick a non-fixed sentence.
okay what about b
Well the colon I guess fixes the sentence as well. XD
so d
So that leaves you with your final option, D. The reason why D is right is because the comma is not properly placed and therefore it still makes the sentence on going.

When using a comma, you must use conjunctions to bring the sentences together correctly.
