There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.

Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.

Select a detail from the excerpt from Amazing Plants that demonstrates that it has a comparison text structure.

In literature, many characters struggle. A common theme is man vs. himself. Choose a character from a book or short story you have read and explain his or her internal struggle. To earn credit for this forum, state the name of the character, the title of the work, and the author. Your response should be 3-5 sentences long and show that you’ve thought about the topic/question at hand. Please be aware we are looking for YOUR PERSONAL OPINION and there is not a single “correct answer.”

Answers

Answer:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald in which the main character, Gatsby, develops the theme of man vs. self. This type of conflict takes place inside the character, so to speak, concerning his struggles with his feelings, decisions, and doubts. With Gatsby, the struggle lies in what he truly is and what he wishes to be. Gatsby lies to the world about his money and his business, but he cannot lie to himself. Thus, he is constantly wearing a metaphorical mask, constantly struggling with his own self-worth. In his desperation to be accepted, the mask falls. When accused by another character of being a criminal, Gatsby can no longer contain himself. If he did not care, perhaps the consequences wouldn't be so terrible. But he cares, a lot. Inside, Gatsby is still insecure - and that is what costs him everything he ever dreamed.

Explanation:

Take the answer above as an example. If you do not wish to write about "The Great Gatsby," feel free to choose a different character and literary work and use the answer as a template.

Conflicts, in literature, are the struggle between two opposing forces. There are external conflicts, such as character vs. character, or character vs. nature. There are also internal conflicts, such as character vs. self, which is the one we must develop in this answer.

PLSSSS

Answers

Answer:

C) The general knew that shot would do the greatest damage.

Explanation:

A) One of the crew members' hands shot up; he knew the answer.  

Shot here means to move quickly and abruptly in a specific direction. It can also be written as:- One of the crew members raised his hand, knowing the solution.

B) They took their best shot and won the competition.

Shot here means to attempt or try (something). This sentence can also be written as:- They gave it their all and won the competition.

C) The general knew that shot would do the greatest damage.

In this case, a shot means to kill or injure (a person or animal). A cannon is a huge gun that launches projectiles such as heavy metal shells. In this sentence after that shot, the general knew, would inflict the most damage. indeed, this sentence best describes the shoot as "matter fired from a cannon"

D) He took a shot of them reenacting a battle.

In this sentence, the shot has been used to mean an occasion when a photographer takes pictures of someone for use in maybe a magazine or for some other purpose. The sentence can also be written as:- He captured them reenacting a battle.

Why does the speaker disagree with native burial customs?
a) The speaker believes that death is an eternal sleep.
b) The speaker believes people should not be buried with every day objects.
c) The speaker believes Native Americans will rest well in the afterlife.
d) The speaker believes that death should not be joyful.

Answers

Answer:

a) The speaker believes that death is an eternal sleep.

Explanation:

Philip Morin Freneau's poem "The Indian Burying Ground" is about the speaker's recent visit to a burial ground of the Native Americans. This imaginative analysis of such burying grounds and contrasts it with the more 'decent' burial of the 'civilized' Europeans.

In the poem, the speaker reveals his opinion about burying the dead, "I still my old opinion keep; the posture that we give the dead, points out the soul's eternal sleep". And contrary to this, he reveals how the native tribes bury their dead, "seated with his friends, and shares again the joyous feast." He also points out his belief of the very nature of burial of the Indians, "activity, that knows no rest."

Thus, to the speaker, death is an eternal sleep.

Answer:

The speaker believes that death is an eternal sleep.

Write a two to three-sentence summary of the short story “The Medicine Bag”. Then, write about what lesson about discussion Martin could learn from his experience with his grandfather

Answers

Answer:

Martin’s great grandfather came to visit martin and his family, but the rosebud reservation, his great grandmother's home and martins home is about 3 days away by bus. Since he's 83 he of course passes out from fatigue after reaching martins home. But luckily he wakes up. Martin’s friends came to his house to see his great grandfather. Martin thought they were going to make fun of him because of his great grandfathers appearance. Both martin and his friends were amazed. Martin received the medicine bag from his great grandfather after his great grandfather handed the bag to martin he went to bed. He was taken to the hospital that night and died two weeks later. Martin’s predecessors had placed their own sacred possessions in the medicine bag. After the death of martin's grandfather he returns to the rosebud reservation and carries on the tradition. So basically the medicine bag is about a boy called martin that his ancestors are Native Americans. He used to tell untrue stories about his grand pa which he knew from the TV or movies and his friends believed him and thought that his grand pa is amazing but when his grand pa visited them he was so embarrasses of him because he didn't look like the way he told his friends about. He was very short and had grey hair and he was old two. but when martin's friends visited him to see his grand pa he was so ashamed and he thought that his friends will make fun of him and his grand pa but instead they loved his grand pa and thought that he is amazing and martin was so sad because he was embarrassed of his grand pa, so now he loves his grand pa and says that he is amazing.

He learned that he must not be embarrassed of his cultures or traditions. Before the grand pa died he gave him the medicine bag.
