Answer 1

2. was

There was a tree earlier in this place.

A tree is 'singular' so we can't use 'were'.

Answer 2

Answer:

2) was

Explanation:

“Was” is the singular past tense of the “to be” verb . It is used in sentences when something happened in the past. It is used for the first (I) and third (She, He, and It) person singular. For example, “I was enjoying dinner”.

“Were” is also a past tense of the verb “to be” but it is used for plural. “Is” is used when something is happening in the present. “Has” is a present perfect tense that is used for the singular third-person conjugations.
