How would you change “my biology test” to make it parallel with “completing my homework”? by removing “my” and “test” by changing “biology test” to “homework” by adding “studying for” to the beginning by replacing “biology test” with “essay exam”

Adding "studying for" because then it would have the same ending sound as "completing" which is the goal for making a sentence parallel.

The correct answer is by adding “studying for” to the beginning.


A parallel construction means that the same form of a word is used throughout a particular sentence. Since we can see that the latter part is 'completing my homework,' it would be good to add a verb to the first part as well, in order to make the sentence parallel. By adding 'studying for,' we've added the same form of a verb (ending in -ing).
