The correct option is:

Maintaining.

To perpetuate means making something continue indefinitely. To maintain means to cause or enable something to continue. Perpetuate and maintain are synonyms, and in this case, the sentence provided sets a context in which maintaining is the best option, as Monsanto is interested in maintaining the so-called "safety” of their products.

In at least one hundred and fifty words, explain the symbolic importance of the iron in the short story "I Stand Here Ironing".
motikmotik
<span>The iron is a  symbolic representation and a mirror of the struggles of the narrator as a mother. Tillie Olsen, the author of the book became a young mother during the 1940s. This led to her shifting her dreams of becoming a writer into taking care and raising her four children. <span>

</span>The story was focused on the struggles of working-class women who wanted to balance their family life as well as provide for their families. Ironing people’s clothes was one of those home-bound activities that women can do back then while at the same time help them raise their children.

The iron is also a symbolic representation of motherhood, and that it can be a tiring but also a fulfilling task that a mother can do. The story talks about humbling experiences (i.e. being a working class woman) that can still lead to values that are life-affirming. The setting of the story was during the period of nuclear war and economic recession and what women have to go through to raise their families and portray themselves as mothers in a struggling environment. <span>

myrzilka [38]

Answer: The national government consisted of a unicameral (one-house) legislature (often called the Confederation Congress); there was no national executive or judiciary.

Explanation:

STRENGTH OF ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION.

(2) The Government successfully negotiated to put an end to the American Revolution in the Treaty of Paris, signed in 1783.

(3) Government granted the free inhabitants of each state “all the privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states.”

(4) Government established the Departments of Foreign Affairs, War, Marine, and Treasury.

WEAKNESS OF ARTICLE OF CONFEDERATION

(2) No national court system was established to protect the rights of U.S. citizens.

(3) No executive branch was established to enforce laws.

(4) Congress had no power to print money, therefore each state developed its own

currency.

(5) Congress was unable to impose taxes; it could only borrow money on credit.
