Question

Identify the appositive phrase in the following sentence.
The giant squid, a huge sea creature with many tentacles, lives deep in
the ocean
Select one:
O lives deep in the ocean
o The giant squid lives deep in the ocean
O The giant squid
a huge sea creature with many tentacles

Answer 1

Answer:

A huge sea creature with many tentacles

Explanation:

An appositive phrase can be easy to identify in the middle of a sentence because when you remove the phrase the entirety of the sentence still makes sense. Just a tip! Also an appositive just adds more information to the noun, in this case the noun is "the giant squid" which we already assume would be a "huge sea creature with many tentacles" therefore that information adds to the noun. Hope this helps!
