6. 6. 

Explanation

The given correct answer is "committing/ COMMITTING/ Committing". It appears that the question is asking for the correct spelling or capitalization of the word "committing". Since all three options are the same word with different capitalization, any of them could be considered correct depending on the context or style guide being followed.

7. 7. 

Explanation

The correct answer is "victims/ VICTIMS/ Victims." It appears that the question is asking for the correct capitalization of the word "victims." The word should be capitalized at the beginning of a sentence or when it is a proper noun, such as in the case of a specific group or organization called "Victims." However, in general usage, the word "victims" should be written in lowercase.

Submit

Submit

The given correct answer is "arrested/ ARRESTED/ Arrested". This suggests that the word "arrested" can be written in any case, whether it is lowercase, uppercase, or title case. All three variations are considered correct and acceptable.

Explanation

The correct answer is "broke into/ BROKE INTO/ Broke into". This answer indicates that the phrase "broke into" can be written in different cases, such as lowercase, uppercase, or a combination of both. This flexibility allows for variations in writing style and does not affect the meaning or correctness of the phrase.

Submit

11. 4.

Explanation

The given answer suggests that the correct spelling of the word "steal" is "steal" or "STEAL" or "Steal". This implies that the word can be written in lowercase or uppercase letters, as both are considered correct.

Submit

12. 5. 

Explanation

The answer is "criminals/ CRIMINALS/ Criminals" because it is the correct capitalization of the word "criminals" according to standard English grammar rules. The word "criminals" should be written in lowercase, unless it is the first word of a sentence or part of a title. In this case, the word is not at the beginning of a sentence or part of a title, so it should be written in lowercase.
