Select the predicate nominative phrase to complete the sentence. the goliath beetle is
a. named after a biblical giant
b. confused with other creatures
c. from the forests of africa
d. one of the worlds largest insects

D. One of the world's largest insects

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to understand what a predicative nominative means.

A predicate nominative (also called a predicate noun) is a word or group of words that completes a linking verb (is, am, are, was...) and renames the subject. Remember, predicate nominative is always a noun or a pronoun. A sentence will still make sense if to switch the predicate nominative and the subject, and a predicate nominative can always be replaced by the word equals.

Keeping this rule in mind, only option D is a predicate nominative, and the sentence will be - The Goliath beetle is one of the world's largest insects.

Proofs:

Predicate nominative (one of the world's largest insects) completes the linking verb 'is'. As we know now, we can switch predicate nominative with the subject and it will still make sense - One of the world's largest insects is the Goliath beetle.A predicate nominative can always be replaced by the word equals - The Goliath beetle equals one of the world's largest insects.
