Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The word "resting place" refers to the final location of the wrecked ship, so "final" is the appropriate adjective to describe it. "Finally" would not make sense in this context as it does not modify the noun "resting place". "Final" describes the nature of the resting place as being the ultimate, end location of the ship. "Finally" is an adverb that would be used to describe an action or event that occurs at the end of a sequence of events, and does not accurately describe the resting place of the ship.
