To determine the central idea of an essay on man, the reader should first FIND OUT THE SUBJECT OF THE ESSAY AND WHAT THE AUTHOR OVERALL OPINION ABOUT THE SUBJECT IS.
The central idea of an essay or text refers to the main idea in the essay; it is the point that the author is trying to pass across to his readers. Some authors clearly state the main idea of their writings while some authors do not, in this case the central idea has to be determined by inference. An essay may have more than one central ideas. Generally, the central idea of an essay can be found in three different places, which are: in the beginning of the essay, near the end of the essay or it can be implied through the sentences used in the essay.
Answer:
The process of cause and effect involving Burmese pythons is similar to the changes in Africa in that they are both talking about how the seemingly innocent actions of humans (cause) led to greater problems in the animal ecosystems (effect).
Explanation:
The Burmese pythons are not native to the Everglades, their presence their can be traced back to the likely fact that they were the pythons (or their descendants), used as pets by humans who later released them into the wild. This action lead to the pythons adapting really well to the ecosystem and consequently hunting some of the native species close to extinction.
Similarly in Africa, humans hunted lions and leopards which drastically reduced their population, which in turn lead to a higher population of a certain type of baboon previously prey to the lions and leopards. This gave rise to a higher rates of parasites in humans and the baboons.
Thus the similarity lies in this: human action (introducing the pythons into the Everglades) in Burmese pythons in the Everglades (cause) led to the near extinction of some native species (effect) that the pythons prey on.
Also, in All the Pieces Matter, humans hunting lions and leopards (cause) led to increase in a baboon population which led to increase in parasites in the baboons and humans (effect).
