During the mid-twentieth century, physicist Chien-Shiung Wu conducted a series of precise experiments on beta decay. Wu's colleagues had theorized that parity was always conserved, her experimental results, however, disproved this long-held law of physics.
Which of the following choices best replaces the underlined portion to create a grammatically correct sentence that logically coordinates the two clauses?
- ANO CHANGE
- Although Wu's colleagues had theorized that parity was always conserved, her experimental results disprovedCevap
- CWu's colleagues had theorized that parity was always conserved; because her experimental results disproved
- DWu's colleagues had theorized that parity was always conserved, so her experimental results disproved
Cevap
The correct answer is the option that subordinates the first clause with 'Although' to establish a logical contrast and avoid a run-on sentence.
The correct option correctly uses the subordinating conjunction 'Although' to establish a logical relationship of contrast between the two clauses. It turns the first clause into a dependent clause, resolving the comma splice and creating a grammatically correct complex sentence.
