Question

read this text.
the titanic wreckage was surveyed by alvin, which is the oldest and most well - known deep - sea research vehicle.
is this an appropriate use of an ellipsis?
\the titanic wreckage... is the oldest and most well - known deep - sea research vehicle.\
yes
no, because the text with an ellipsis no longer has the same meaning

Explanation:

An ellipsis is used to indicate omitted words. In the original text, "by Alvin" is crucial as it identifies what surveyed the Titanic wreckage (Alvin, a deep - sea research vehicle). Removing it with an ellipsis changes the meaning, making it seem like the wreckage itself is the research vehicle.

Answer:

no, because the text with an ellipsis no longer has the same meaning
