Eliminate C) I got lost in the deep south when I took a wrong turn in Bullock County. D) If you just head north on I-75, you will eventually hit the town of Gasden

Answer 1

The sentence with a capitalization error is C) I got lost in the deep south when I took a wrong turn in Bullock County, where 'deep south' should be capitalized as 'Deep South'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence that has an error in capitalization is:

C) I got lost in the deep south when I took a wrong turn in Bullock County.

The term “deep south” should be capitalized as “Deep South” because it is a proper noun that refers to a specific region in the United States. In contrast, directions like 'north' in a general sense are not capitalized, as seen in sentence B). When 'north' is used in sentence D) it is referring to a specific place, so it is correctly capitalized there.

Answer 2

The answer is B. “rock face” needs to be capitalized.
