Question

course challenge
even though its crocodilian jaws are fragile and incapable of eating a large animal, the gharial still evokes a powerful emotion, terror.
choose 1 answer:
no change
emotion
emotion—
emotion;

Explanation:

A comma is used to separate an appositive (a word or phrase that renames another word) from the rest of the sentence. Here, "terror" is an appositive renaming "emotion". Option A uses a comma correctly. Option B has no punctuation, which is incorrect. Option C uses a dash, which is not the appropriate punctuation here. Option D uses a semicolon, which is also incorrect as it is used to separate two independent clauses.

Answer:

A. NO CHANGE
