Answer:
The poem "Harlem" uses the free verse form of poetry.
Explanation:
Langston Hughes' poem "Harlem" was written in the form of a free verse which means that there is no specific rhyme scheme or meter form. Free verse poems are nonetheless poetic. The absence of any consistent rhyme scheme did not defer in the poem's meaningful expression of the poem.
Hughes'<em> "Harlem"</em> is in the form of a question which the poet directed to the readers. The poem goes like this-
<em>What happens to a dream deferred?
</em>
<em> Does it dry up
</em>
<em> like a raisin in the sun?
</em>
<em> Or fester like a sore—
</em>
<em> And then run?
</em>
<em> Does it stink like rotten meat?
</em>
<em> Or crust and sugar over—
</em>
<em> like a syrupy sweet?
</em>
<em />
<em> Maybe it just sags
</em>
<em> like a heavy load.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em> Or does it explode?</em>
There are no specific rhyming scheme though some words do rhyme in some lines (sun/run, meat/sweet etc). But overall, there is no indication of any sense of rhyming or meter form.
Answer:
Decreased shade variation of red color because no trait form is now advantageous.
Explanation:
Earlier females choose mates based on vibrant colors of male feathers, therefore, there was a selection pressure on males to evolve the trait so that they get their mate and pass their genes to the next generation.
So when females switched to other criteria other than feather color to get their mate then the importance of color trait gets reduced and the trait becomes non-advantageous for male cardinal.
Therefore due to this change, there is no longer necessity remained to evolve the color trait so the shade variation will decrease over time as now no trait form remained advantageous for this bird species.
