Answer 2

Answer:

Simple sentence is :

• The marks of the whip were still visible mark.

• Or it can be : The whip's marks were still visible.

Explanation :

• Simple Sentence takes a finite verb and here it is 'left'.

• Finite verb depends on tense, person and number. We can write the above sentence as : The whip leaves visible mark. Here 'lives' has turned into an example of simple present tense.

• Above rewrite sentence is an example of Simple Past Tense. 'Left' is past form of 'leave'.

• Example : He left me here.

• Both 'the marks of whip' and apostrophe after 'the whip' are expressing possessive nouns. Both 'whip' and 'marks' are nouns but here 'the whip' is possessing 'the marks', so it's a Possessive Noun.
