By combining these cognitive feats, ______ Research conducted by biologist Scarlett Howard suggests the answer is yes. Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English? Choose 1 answer: @ INCORRECT can bees be trained to understand written numbers. This choice ends the sentence with a period, which isn’t right. The sentence after the blank tells us that “research...suggests the answer is yes", so the sentence completed by the blank should be a question. While this choice is phrased as a question, it doesn't use a question mark. Q INCORRECT bees can be trained to understand written numbers. This choice ends the sentence with a period, which isn’t right. The sentence after the blank tells us that “research...suggests the answer is yes", so the sentence completed by the blank should present a question. @ INCORRECT bees can be trained to understand written numbers? This choice doesn’t conform to the conventions of Standard English. In Standard English, questions place the modal verb (like "can" or "do") before the subject. So while this choice correctly uses a question mark, it's not correctly phrased as a question. ° CORRECT (SELECTED) can bees be trained to understand written numbers? This is the best choice. The sentence after the blank tells us that “research... suggests the answer is yes”, so the sentence completed by the blank should be in the conventional form of a question: with the modal verb (like "can" or "do") before the subject and a question mark at the end.
