Answer 1

To identify the words with suffixes that mean more than one, we can look for words that have the suffix "-s" or "-es," which are commonly used to indicate plural forms in English.

Here are the plural nouns among the options given:

1. **pennies** (suffix: -ies)
2. **arrows** (suffix: -s)
3. **ranches** (suffix: -es)
4. **deserts** (suffix: -s)
5. **meals** (suffix: -s)

Now, you can drag these words (pennies, arrows, ranches, deserts, meals) to the chart.
