Which sentence type states a fact or makes a statement?

• A. Exclamatory Sentence
• B. Declarative Sentence
• C. Imperative Sentence
• D. Conditional Statement

Answer: (B)

The function being tested is how sentences convey purpose or mood. A statement that shares information or facts is handled by a declarative sentence. That fits perfectly here because the prompt describes a sentence that simply states something rather than asking, commanding, or expressing strong emotion. Declaratives typically end with a period, making them straightforward statements like “The weather is nice.” In contrast, exclamatory sentences express strong feeling and end with an exclamation point, imperatives give commands or requests, and conditional statements describe a condition and its result.
