Which of the following items is NOT part of the circulatory system?

1. c. Syllabi
The word syllabi is the correct plural form of syllabus. The other answer choices reflect incorrect plural
forms. Specifically, syllabus does not change the form at all, and the Latin root of syllabus would require
some change. At the same time, syllaba—while an accurate plural for some words with Latin roots—is
incorrect in this case. And syllabis is a double form of the plural, so it cannot be correct. - ✔✔1. Which of
the following nouns represents the correct plural form of the word syllabus?
a. Syllabusb. Syllaba
c. Syllabi
d. Syllabis
1. A: Semicolons are used to separate items in a series when those items contain internal commas, such
as in a listing of cities and states. Answer choice A correctly demonstrates this. Answer choice B places
the semicolon between the city and its state, instead of between each listing of the city and its state,
and this is incorrect. A comma is always used to separate a single instance of a city and a state. Answer
choice C separate the items in the series with commas, but this creates confusion for the reader, since
there are already commas between each city and its state. Answer choice D places commas between
each item in the series, but fails to include the necessary comma between each city and its state - ✔✔1.
Which of the following sentences shows the correct way to separate the items in the series?
a. These are actual cities in the United States: Unalaska, Alaska; Yreka, California; Two Egg, Florida; and
Boring, Maryland.

Boring, Maryland.

1. D: The revision in D removes a number of pronouns that lack clear antecedents. It also removes the
need for the use of the subjunctive by placing the speech in quotations - ✔✔1. Tanya told her sister to
