Answer 1

B. The sentences in the paragraph are structured similarly.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentences in the paragraph have the same structure, so their parallelism does not allow them to display any variation in construction. In that respect, the sentences are all simple and active and are not linked by cohesive devices or transitional words.

Answer 2

Answer: B. The sentences in the paragraph are structured similarly.

Explanation: Dekanawidah is the author of the Great Law of the Iroquois Confederacy that bound five Indian Nations. The Iroquois Great Law replaced cycles of murder, revenge, and violent destruction of villages with a system of justice administered by hereditary chiefs.
