Yes, there is a meter to this line.
Given that there are 8 syllables in this line, that would mean this is a tetrameter. One meter consists of 2 syllables, so if there are 8 syllables in a line, that would mean there are 4 meters, which in literature is called a tetrameter.
Also, when you take into consideration the unstressed and stressed syllables, you see that here the sequence goes: unstressed, stressed, unstressed, stressed, etc. which are qualities of iamb.
So, this line is written in<u> </u><u>iambic tetrameter. </u><u />

In "The Lady, or the Tiger?," if the princess directs him to the door with the tiger behind it, she will do so because she _____
Fiesta28 [93]
When the princess is discovered with a lover who is of lower status than she is, the king holds a trial where the princess's lover must choose between two doors. One door will have a tiger behind it, and the other door will have a woman who is a worthy match for the man. The princess knows what is behind each door, and when the man looks to her for help, she gestures towards one of the doors. However, the audience does not know which door she tells him to pick. If she picks the one with the woman behind it, it would mean she loves the man enough to let him go and live, even if it is with another woman. If she chooses the door with the tiger behind it, it means she could not bear to see him with anyone else, and decided it was better for him to die. Hope this helps.

Argumentative essay that answers the machine is making less liquid oxygen than normal what is wrong
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Liquid oxygen evaporates on a little bit higher temperature than the liquid nitrogen because they both have similar attraction between molecules. It means that different from the normal one, the liquid machine makes less liquid oxygen as a part of it evaporates as a gas.

Explanation:

Liquid oxygen, however, occupies less space as gas, and it makes it lighter for carrying. Also, it can be kept under lower pressure. This is how the liquid oxygen tanks are safer than the tanks with concentrated oxygen that are under high pressure.
