When studying memory consolidation during sleep, neuroscientists observe distinct patterns of brain activity. They monitor electroencephalogram (EEG) readings, analyze neurotransmitter levels, and interviews are conducted with participants after they wake to assess dream recall. This multi-layered approach helps researchers map how the brain processes daily experiences and converts them into long-term memories.
Which of the following options, if substituted for the underlined portion, best maintains consistent grammatical construction and voice in the sentence?
- ANO CHANGE
- conduct interviews with participants after they wakeCevap
- Cconducting interviews with participants after they wake
- Dconducted interviews with participants after they woke
Cevap
The option that reads 'conduct interviews with participants after they wake' is correct because it uses the active verb 'conduct' to maintain the parallel structure and active voice of the other verbs in the series.
The correct option maintains grammatical consistency by using a present-tense, active-voice verb that is parallel to the other actions in the list. This keeps the subject consistently performing the actions rather than shifting the sentence focus to the passive voice.
