<span>The “fall of the House of Usher” was written by Edgar Allan Poe and published in 1839 in a magazine. At that time, his kind of literature was not popular, the Gothic movement started in England and it was brought to America by him. In America, the literature style was more moralistic so his stories were thought to cause an emotional effect. He introduced the idea of short stories, he argued that a story was meant to be read at one sitting. </span>

PLEASE HELP, WILL MARK BRAINLEST
Leto [7]

Answer:

"Most bewildering," "small white bulb"

Explanation:

I found the answer by using answer elimination. For "most bewildering," we can see that Muir is questioning the flower and looking at it carefully. This is a step of the scientific method, asking questions and making observations.

As for "bed of yellow mosses," I found this to be written in a more poetic way. This is a metaphor, saying the moss is a 'bed of moss.' There is definitely nothing scientific about that observation.

"Small white bulb" is descriptive. There is nothing fancy or exciting about that phrase, it is simply describing it the way it is, much as a scientist would. It sounds to me like a passage from a book on botany.

When I read "utmost simple purity," I found this as a somewhat religious observation. If not, it would surely be a poetic attempt, to romanticize the flower.

"Cried for joy" would not be a scientific observation. Never have I heard a researcher state that they cried for joy upon realizing that the effects of too much caffeine cause hallucinations. This would be a distraction from the study and has no place except in a seperate interview.

Hope this helps!
