Answer:
Explanation:
1. Study skills, academic skill, or study strategies are approaches applied to learning. They are generally critical to success in school, considered essential for acquiring good grades, and useful for learning throughout one's life.
2.In English grammar, a main clause is a group of words made up of a subject and a predicate. A main clause (unlike a dependent or subordinate clause) can stand alone as a sentence. A main clause is also known as an independent clause, a superordinate clause, or a base clause.
3.A dependent clause is a group of words that also contains a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete thought. Because it is not a comp7lete thought, a dependent clause cannot stand on its own as a sentence; it is dependent on being attached to an independent clause to form a sentence.
4.Conjunction is a word that joins words, phrases, clauses or sentence. e.g. but, and, yet, or, because, nor, although, since, unless, while, where etc. Examples: She bought a shirt and a book.
5.The difference between a simple sentence and a complex sentence is the number of clauses they contain. A simple sentence has only one clause, but a complex sentence has more than one clause. A clause is a portion of a sentence that contains both its own subject and its own verb.
6.Supporting sentences SUPPORT the main idea of the paragraph. These sentences follow a topic sentence in a paragraph. Supporting sentences contain details that help describe or explain the main idea of the paragraph. Supporting sentences should fit the context and flow of a paragraph.
