Answer 1

Edgar Allan Poe, the American Poet, was adopted.

Answer 2

Hi!

The answer to this question is the first option. Edgar Allan Poe, the American poet, was adopted

Step-by-step explanation:

The second option is wrong because they capitalized the word poet. The word poet is a noun, and therefore, it should not be capitalized. Only nouns that refer to an important title such as President should be capitalized.

The third and last option is wrong aswell as the word American is not capitalized. The word American refers to a person from America, especially the US, so it should be capitalized since its referring to a person belonging to a country (in this case the US).

The first option correctly capitalized Edgar Allan Poe's name and the word referring to his coutry of origin (America), therefore, option A is the correct answer.
