Respuesta :

Answer:

Sentence 2 shows correct parallel structure.

Explanation:

Notice how in the second sentence the verbs run, act, and serve are all conjugated the same way, with "-ing" at the end of them. Because they are all conjugated in the same way (present tense) that shows that the second sentence is parallel and that the first sentence is not.

I hope this helps!
