Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called tec

tonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate..   What is the topic sentence for this passage?

Can someone pls explain the poem 'Nothing Gold Can Stay' line by line?
defon

Answer:

The line 'So Eden sank to grief' is an allusion, or literary reference, to the Biblical story about The Garden of Eden, a perfect paradise until Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge. By making this reference, Frost is implying that the idea nothing good can last is an old one; it's part of our human experience.

Can you suggest me one story similar to given story​
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The princess and the pea

Explanation:

The story tells of a prince who wants to marry a princess but is having difficulty finding a suitable wife. Something is always wrong with those he meets and he cannot be certain they are real princesses because they have bad table manners or they are not his type. One stormy night a young woman drenched with rain seeks shelter in the prince's castle. She claims to be a princess, so the prince's mother decides to test their unexpected guest, by placing a pea in the bed she is offered for the night, covered by huge mattresses and 20 feather-beds.

In the morning, the guest tells her hosts that she endured a sleepless night, kept awake by something hard in the bed that she is certain has bruised her. With the proof of her bruised back, the princess passes the test and the prince rejoices happily, for only a real princess would have the sensitivity to feel a pea through such a quantity of bedding. The two are happily married, and the story ends with the pea being placed in a museum, where, according to the story, it can still be seen today unless someone has stolen it.

Read the sentence.
klasskru [66]

Answer: B is correct, "During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat."

Explanation:

The words vacation and out of town are repetitive, and therefore unnecessary. The words repeated and over and over again are the same case. When you remove both of those, sentence B best portrays the most concise sentence.

Hope this helps! Please rate brainliest! :)
