Answer 12

Hello? is anyone here?

Answer 13

As has been stated....... It's words that connect the sentence. Here we have: The winning team had ****both*** boys ****and**** girls, ****but***** not everyone had a chance to play.

Answer 14

There's ONLY 3 that COMBINE the WHOLE sentence together. It's pretty much directed in the sentence. Shouldn't be that hard.

Answer 15

Thx but its hard for me cuz im only a 7th grader

Answer 16

is it A. then?

Answer 17

That's alright. No. Not A.
LOOK:
"Conjunctions are used to join words or groups of words together. The most common ones are and, or, and but "

Answer 18

ok

Answer 19

I knew that I was confused on whether it being B. or D. or whether it was one of the other answer choices.

Answer 20

so if it's not A., and it's not B., and it's not D., then that means it's C.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 21

NOT is NOT considered as a conjunction in this sentence.

Answer 22

Answer 23
