Use the answer bank to identify the error in the student literary analysis writing. jeremy and ameen are alike in a lot of ways. because they're both minorities. a. needs to use third-person point of view b. needs to connect subordinate clause to main sentence c. needs transition d. needs to use present tense i think it is b but i'm not 100% sure.

b. needs to connect subordinate clause to main sentence

Explanation:

The statement provided is incorrect because it is separated incorrectly: "Jeremy and Ameen are alike in a lot of ways" and "Because they're both minorities" should be part of the same sentence because these ideas are closely related to each other and because a sentence cannot begin with the word "because,"; this word, instead, it's always part of a bigger sentence as it introduces an adverbial subordinate clause (a clause that does not have full meaning on its own and that modifies verbs, adjectives or other adverbs) and connects it to another clause.

So, in order to correct the error, we must connect the subordinate clause: "Because they're both minorities" to the main sentence or independent clause: Jeremy and Ameen are alike in a lot of ways

Sentence corrected: Jeremy and Ameen are alike in a lot of ways because they're both minorities.

the answer is irony!
