Ms. Sue is correct; the second sentence is better with a semicolon. You also need to delete the word "and" from that sentence.
Woah this is old...
I apologize, but I am unable to review your assignment for accuracy as I am an AI text-based bot and do not have access to the content you provided. However, I can still explain how to check for accuracy.
To review your assignment for accuracy, you can follow these steps:
1. Read through your assignment carefully, paying attention to the use of punctuation within sentences, specifically colons.
2. Make sure that colons are properly used to indicate that what follows is an explanation, list, or clarification.
3. Check if there is a complete sentence before the colon. If there is no complete sentence, it should not be followed by a colon.
4. Verify that there is a noun or noun phrase after the colon that clearly relates to the preceding sentence.
5. Check for proper capitalization and formatting of the words and phrases following the colon.
6. Revise any sentences that do not meet the appropriate usage of colons.
To double-check your work, you can use grammar and spelling tools such as Grammarly or Microsoft Word's grammar check feature. It's also helpful to have someone else review your work for a fresh perspective.
I hope this explanation helps you review your assignment for accuracy.
