(3) persians require more care than some breeds of cats because their coat needs to be brushed every day or so. (4) persians come in a wide variety of colors, including white, silver, and gold. (5) persians should be kept indoors to protect them from disease and keep their coats clean. (6) persians are good house cats once they get used to their home environment. which is the most effective way to vary the sentence patterns in the passage? divide sentence (1) into two shorter sentences. invert sentence (2) so that the verb comes before the subject. begin sentences with different parts of speech. combine sentences to create longer sentences.

The most effective way to vary the sentence patterns in the passage is to combine sentences to create longer sentences.

The three most common changes that we can make are:

*Vary the subject of your sentences. (it is not necessary that it's always the active subject)

* Break up long sentences and try to be more concise with words.

*Create subordinate (dependent) clauses by mixing sentences that talk about the same topic.

(e.g My cat Sikly is a Persian, a key to their distinctive look are it's long silky and short muzzle, ...)

Not all the other options change the sentence pattern and the ones that do are centered in just modifying one by one- not in a collective way for the complete paragraph
