Manatees are ocean mammals they live in Florida's tropical waters manatees feed in the nighttime, and sleep during the day. Each night the manatee searches for food and it grazes on water plants and it will consume the equivalent, of about one-tenth of its body weight. Manatees are in danger, humans are destroying their habitats, motorboat propellers hit manatees resting just below the waters surface.

Alex-
Please pay careful attention to details. In exercise A, you were supposed to break each sentence up into TWO different sentences. The same thing for exercise B, except you need to make sure you rewrite the sentences as one simple sentence and one compound sentence. Please let me know when you've fixed this so I can give you full credit.
