Ответ:
The answer is b. run-on.
Explanation:
When independent clauses are joined incorrectly, we have what is called a run-on sentence. An independent clause is a group of words that can stay alone as a sentence, which means it offers information that makes sense without the help of another sentence.
When we join independent clauses without any sort of punctuation, we have a fused sentence. When we join them only with a comma, we have a comma splice. The run-on sentence we are analyzing here is an example of a fused sentence, since it presents no punctuation:
- Flash flooding creates dangerous conditions rain falls too quickly to be absorbed into the ground or to drain.
In order to correct it and not create a comma splice, we could do as follows:
- Flash flooding creates dangerous conditions; rain falls too quickly to be absorbed into the ground or to drain. (employ a semicolon)
