Answer:
Why, the tiny shrew is more ferocious than a tiger!
Explanation:
Commas are punctuation marks used in written communication to separate two or more ideas or sentences, to add clarity and to indicate a brief pause.
The most common uses of commas are:
- To separate three or more words.
- After introductory clauses, words, adverbs or sentences.
- To separate two or more adjectives that modify the same noun.
- To separate two independent clauses joined by connectors.
- To prevent possible confusion while reading.
- To directly address someone.
- To separate elements on full dates and directions.
In this example:
Why, the tiny shrew is more ferocious than a tiger!
The comma is changing the meaning of the sentence, without it the sentence would be a question when it actually is an affirmation, and why is the introductory word, therefor, the correct sentence is option C.
