Question

are these complete sentences, or is one of them a fragment? jake the dog created an ice sculpture of his favorite celebrity, but worried it would melt. on a summer afternoon, under the beating sun.

Explanation:

A complete sentence has a subject, verb, and expresses a full thought. The first two parts have subjects ("Jake the Dog," "he" implied in "worried"), verbs ("created," "worried"), and express full ideas. The phrase "On a summer afternoon, under the beating sun." lacks a subject and verb, so it is a fragment.

Answer:

Fragment: On a summer afternoon, under the beating sun.
Complete Sentences: Jake the Dog created an ice sculpture of his favorite celebrity, but worried it would melt.
