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:

The original text mentions "Alvin" as the surveying vehicle. The ellipsis - containing text omits this key information. Without "Alvin", the meaning of what surveyed the Titanic wreckage is lost. So, it's an inappropriate use as the meaning changes.

Answer:

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