Question

Choose the sentence in which the underlined word or group of words is a predicate adjective.

Deserts are places with little rainfall.

Not all deserts are sweltering.

The snowy continent of Antarctica is a desert.

Answer 1

deserts are places with little rainfalls

Answer 2

B: Not all deserts are sweltering

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence in the option B has a predicate adjective: sweltering. The predicate adjective occurs in the predicate, and it follows a linking verb . It also contrasts with the attributive adjective, which appears before a noun. Not all deserts (subject) are (linking verb) sweltering (predicate adjective). In A, little is attributive adjective; in C, desert is a noun.
