Answer:
"from the plane" is the prepositional phrase

Explanation:
A prepositional phrase is a group of words containing a preposition, a noun or pronoun object of the preposition, and any modifiers of the object.

Some of the most common prepositions that begin prepositional phrases are to, of, about, at, before, after, by, behind, during, for, from, in, over, under, and with.

For example: "Mark needs to be on time for his business meeting."
"On time" is the prepositional phrase.

Therefore, "from the plane" is the prepositional phrase in the sentence.

In “My Name," what is Esperanza's attitude toward her name?

Alexeev081 [22]

I think it’s “She wants to change it to a new name because Esperanza said that although she likes how her name means hope in Spanish, she doesn't really like her name and she would gladly change it but she isn’t Abe to do nothing she can do about it, as she says "But I am always Esperanza," (Cisneros 11).

Identify and evaluate the imagery and figurative language used in the poem “Tattoo” by Gregg Shapiro and how it relates to the m

Savatey [412]

In the poem, the following figurative languages are used:

Blue as blood - simile
Protection like acid - simile
I wear him like a cloak - simile

The first one talks about the tattoo on the father's wrist. This idealizes that the tattoos are part of the father's body and distracting like a vein (veins appear bluish from the outside)
The second one is an abutment; protection is compared to acid, which is a substance that destroys, not protects. This implies that the efforts of the father in protecting the child feel like it is eating away (like acid).
The third one describes feelings of the speaker under the father's protection; The speaker sweats under the weight of being wrapped around instead of getting comfortable and relieved.

Hope this answer helps.
