Know the Answer?

Albert Cline · Answer 1

The answer is C because it describes a name, names have to be capitalized

Marlie Tyler · Answer 2

If you are talking about some specific like a type of schooner or a famous one that belonged to Queen Elizabeth, then it would be capitalized. So B is incorrect.

So is A. We need to change something.

D has the same problem as B. If you are talking about the Pacific Ocean, then Ocean would need a capital.

The answer is C. It is one of the fireworks that set off WWI. Lusitania must be capitalized. It is a specific ocean liner.
