Answer:
parallelism
Explanation:
Parallelism refers to the use of similar grammatical structure among sentences in a text, so that the sentences and clauses are built in an almost identical grammatical construction. In that matter, parallelism actually involves a balance of different grammatical categories; for instance:
<em>My cat Greta enjoys sleeping on my bed, eating all the time and hunting bugs in the garden. In the same way, my dog Pepa loves taking long naps, waiting to be fed and going for walks.</em>
Thus, both sentences are written with the same structure: subject plus verbs followed by gerunds with <em>-ing</em>.
<span>1. Mary Todd Lincoln's life was marked by three traumatic episodes: the deaths of sons Willie and Tad and the assassination of her husband, the president.
</span><span>2. Most wildflowers are transient they wilt soon after they are picked.

3. Years of drought in north central Africa have created a (n) aberration of refugees numbering in the thousands.
4. A transitive verb carries action from the doer to the receiver, as in "The batter smacked the ball."
5. Newspapers published a (n) obituary of Emperor Hirohito of Japan the day after his death in 1989.
<span>6. In spite of its name, the French Quarter of New Orleans retains a Spanish colonial ambience for the years it belonged to Spain.</span>
