    A. The predicate
    Explanation
    The predicate of a sentence is responsible for providing the main information about the subject and giving the sentence its meaning.

Without a predicate, a sentence would lack a clear message or purpose, making it meaningless. Therefore, the predicate is the element that gives a sentence its meaning.
