1. An elephant rely on its trunk - relies

The subject of the sentence is 'elephant'. It is a singular entity. The verb will thus be 'relies' and not 'rely'.

2. For it highly developed sense of -its

Since the subject is 'an elephant' it has to be replaced by a possessive pronoun which is 'its' and not 'it'.

3. Smell. By raised the trunk up -raising

Verbs that signify a tense or specific time period are known as finite verbs. When a tense is not required to be specified non finite verbs are to be used which can be in the form of present participle or an infinitive.

For the given sentence a non finite verb is required to express a general habit of an elephant.

The word 'by' determines it has to be a participle hence the correct verb is 'raising'.

4. In the air as moving it form -  from

The word 'form' signifies a specific shape or figure; in this sentence a preposition is required.

From is the appropriate preposition to be used.

5. Side and side, it can determine -to

In this sentence a conjunction is not required. Instead a preposition is required to specify the direction. By is the most appropriate preposition.  

6. The location of friends.- the, its.

Sentence six is a continuation of sentence five. Hence the article 'the' should not begin with a capital letter.

Before the word 'friends' a possessive pronoun has to be placed to specify whose friends.

The sentence thus becomes: the location of its friends.
