9.Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier? A. The Mendez twins, whom I know from band camp, visited today. B. I wrote a letter to my cousin, whom I haven't seen for months. C. The baby has a fever, whom we took to the doctor's office. @HannahA @MissSmartiez

B

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

Nope it's not b... Guess again. Remember A misplaced modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is improperly separated from the word it modifies / describes. Because of the separation, sentences with this error often sound awkward, ridiculous, or confusing.

OpenStudy (xxcookiequeenxx):

so A

OpenStudy (hannaha):

No, look at the last sentence.

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

No A is correct. The answer is C. because you took the baby to the doctors not the fever.

Incorrect**
