Question

which sentences are punctuated correctly? check all that apply. the dog (that was barking) was a st. bernard. that sculpture which is made of scrap metal was designed by an older artist. the astronauts on the mission were all experienced. the bicycle—that has the best brakes—is a european brand. one sport that i would like to learn is hockey.

Explanation:

1. In "The dog (that was barking) was a St. Bernard.", parentheses are misused as non - essential clauses are better in commas.
2. "That sculpture which is made of scrap metal was designed by an older artist." lacks commas around the non - essential relative clause "which is made of scrap metal".
3. "The astronauts on the mission were all experienced." has correct punctuation as it is a simple, well - formed sentence.
4. "The bicycle—that has the best brakes—is a European brand." correctly uses em dashes to set off the non - essential clause.
5. "One sport that I would like to learn is hockey." is punctuated correctly as "that I would like to learn" is an essential relative clause and no additional punctuation is needed.

Answer:

C. The astronauts on the mission were all experienced.
D. The bicycle—that has the best brakes—is a European brand.
E. One sport that I would like to learn is hockey.
