Question

fill in the blank.
it got cloudy when we went to the ocean.
the conjunction in the middle means —?—.
two periods are needed
no comma is needed
a question mark is needed

Explanation:

In the sentence “It got cloudy when we went to the ocean”, “when” is a subordinating conjunction. When a subordinating conjunction is used in the middle of a sentence (i.e., the independent clause comes first followed by the dependent clause), no comma is needed. For example, “I will call you when I arrive” doesn’t have a comma. If the dependent clause comes first (e.g., “When I arrive, I will call you”), a comma is used. But in our given sentence structure (independent clause + dependent clause with “when”), no comma is required.

Answer:

no comma is needed
