Review the word roots on the left. Which sentences use the underlined word correctly? Check all that apply.

“Sense” refers to a feeling, perception, or ability to notice something, so it is used correctly in “sense of smell” and “sense when a storm is coming.” “Cents” are units of money, so “sixty cents” is correct. In A, the price should be fifty cents, not “sense”; in C, the phrase should be “sense of humor,” not “cents of humor.”
