Question

Read the sentences.

Many vegetables are the roots of plants. Carrots are roots. Beets are as well. However, carrots are usually long and slender, while beets are red and round.

Which word or words signal that two things are being compared?

while
are usually
as well
however

Answer 1

Answer:

While and however

Explanation:

"are usually" refers to the common shape of the carrot (which is not what we need).

"as well" tells you that beets and carrots are similar, but shows no sign of comparison.

"however" and "while" are left.
