Read the following sentence and answer the question. " The angry daughter couldn't understand why Mama wouldn't give her the quilts, and she doesn't want to stay"

Which of the following parts of speech or grammatical structures in the sentence are not parallel?

-the coordinating conjunction

-the adjectives

-the dependent clauses

-the verb tense

The non parallel structure in the given statement is the coordinating conjunction.

Answer : Option A

Explanation:

The Parallel structure in a given statement means that the maintenance of balance between the similar forms in the same statement throughout in the phrase or clause following same grammatical structure.

For deduction here in the given statement, verb tense is maintaining the parallelism as, couldn't ... wouldn't ... doesn't. Similarly, adjectives are maintained in the statement with the dependent clause. Only coordinating conjunction did not maintain the parallelism.

Coma and mama misplaced there and so not stands with complete meaning. Coordinating Conjunction are those conjunction which coordinates between the phrase, here 'and' is the coordinating conjunction which is not in parallelism.
