Answer: b. False

Explanation: An elliptical clause is a type of clause that is missing words, often a verb or a verb phrase. While it is possible to cause confusion to the reader, elliptical clauses are acceptable to use if it is clear what the missing words are.

For example, in the following sentence, the verb "am" is missing because it is implied

She is a better runner than I.
