Explanation:

In the sentence, "The American flag which is made up of thirteen red and white stripes and fifty white stars has a variety of nicknames which include 'Old Glory' and 'the Star - Spangled Banner.'", the relative clauses "which is made up of thirteen red and white stripes and fifty white stars" and "which include 'Old Glory' and 'the Star - Spangled Banner'" are non - restrictive relative clauses. In English, non - restrictive relative clauses should be set off by commas. So we need to add commas after "flag" and after "nicknames".

Answer:

The words that should be followed by a comma are "flag" and "nicknames". So we click on "flag" and "nicknames" (in the context of the interactive task, we would interact with these words as per the interface instructions). If we consider the answer in terms of identifying the words, the answer is "flag" and "nicknames" (to be followed by commas).
