are these correct? Thank you
Answered by Ms. Sue
complements: special and difficult
<b>Both of these words are adjectives. The only complement is <u>computers</u> because it tells WHAT scientists use. </b>

prepositional phrase: for difficult problems
<b>Correct</b>

objects of preposition: difficult
<b>The object of the preposition is the noun or pronoun that follows the preposition. In this sentence the object of the preposition is <u>problems</u>.</b>
