(7) this is why emma enjoys visiting uncle leo so much. what change should be made to sentence 3? change emmas to emma’s change emimas to emmas change uncle leo to uncle leo no change is needed.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Sentence 3 uses the incorrect possessive form of "Emma". For singular nouns ending in a vowel (like Emma), the correct possessive is formed by adding an apostrophe and an 's' (Emma's) to show that Uncle Leo belongs to Emma. The original "Emmas'" is grammatically wrong for a singular noun. Lowercasing "Uncle Leo" is incorrect because it's a specific title for a named relative, so it should be capitalized. Removing the apostrophe entirely would eliminate the possessive meaning, which is needed here.

Answer:

Change Emmas' to Emma's
