In a response of 2-3 sentences, provide one detail or fact you found in your research and list the required source information.

One fact that I found out during my research was that some cells have the ability to move their flowers in the direction of the Sun while others do not. Sunflower and other flowers which belong to the family Asteraceae show such kind of behaviour. These flowers might have a random orientation at night. But at the time of morning, they turn east towards the sun and follow its direction throughout the day.

because most jews were in the concentration camps and dying horrible deaths while anne could be with her family in a warm place with shelter, food, water, and a place to sleep.

sentences vary by structure as well as by function. there are compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences.

simple sentence

i like to read.

a simple sentence has one independent clause.

compound sentence

i like to read, and i also like to write.

a compound sentence includes more than one independent clause, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, for, nor, or, so, or yet).

complex sentence

i prefer to read books that are bestsellers.

a complex sentence includes one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. (a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone.) types of dependent clauses include relative clauses (i kicked the boy who pinched me), adverb clauses (i am going home now because i have a curfew), and noun clauses (i don't know what to do next).

compound-complex sentence

although i prefer to read current bestsellers, i do like to read old agatha christie mysteries, and i also like some 20th-century science fiction.

compound-complex sentences take a bunch of clauses (multiple independent clauses, and one or more dependent clauses) and toss them together like a salad. although these sentences take practice to write in a grammatically correct fashion, they can hold a tremendous amount of meaning, and are common in academic writing.
