Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. The overplayed song has lost its appeal for me.

Explanation:

The options provided in the question concern the homophones "it's" and "its." They are commonly mistaken for each other dues to their sounding the same, and are consequently used erroneously. "It's" is the contraction of the subject pronoun "it" and the third-person singular verb "is." For that reason, "it's" is used as the subject of a clause, frequently substituting some previously mentioned noun or referring, for instance, to natural phenomena. The examples below help illustrate it:

- It's snowing again. - natural phenomenon

- My bike is making a weird noise when I try to start it. It's broken, I think. - substituting "my bike"

"Its", on the other hand, is a possessive adjective. It accompanies a noun, modifying it, to establish a relationship of possession between that noun and another one. Study the example below:

- That stray cat is constantly licking its paws. - the paws belong to the cat

Having that in mind, we can tell letter C is the only option that uses the correct homophone, since "its" establishes a relationship of possession between the song and the appeal. The song has an appeal. Its appeal (the song's) has been lost.

Letters A and B use "it's" when they should employ "its", and letter D does the opposite, using "its" when it actually needs the subject+verb "it's".
Answer 2
Answer: the answer is going to be. the overplayed song has lost its appeal for me

What is population?

Population is the term typically used to refer to the number of people in a single area. Governments conduct a census to quantify the size of a resident population within a given jurisdiction.

In ecology, a population is a group of organisms of the same species who inhabit the same particular geographical area and are capable of interbreeding.The area of a sexual population is the area where inter-breeding is possible between any pair within the area and more probable than cross-breeding with individuals from other areas.
