Question

which is the best way to complete the text? polar bears have translucent fur that appears white in the ____________ makes them well adapted to life in the arctic, where blending in with the snow helps them approach prey undetected. sunlight; this sunlight and this sunlight; since this

Explanation:

The first option "sunlight; this" is correct. The semicolon separates two related independent - clauses. "This" refers back to the fact that the fur appears white in sunlight, which makes them well - adapted. The "and" in the second option makes the sentence structure less clear, and the "since" in the third option is redundant as the relationship is not one of cause - and - effect in that way.

Answer:

sunlight; this
