In this excerpt from act I, scene II, of Macbeth, what can be inferred from Banquo’s response to the witches’ prophecy? BANQUO:

That, trusted home, Might yet enkindle you unto the crown, Besides the Thane of Cawdor. But 'tis strange: And oftentimes to win us to our harm, The instruments of darkness tell us truths; Win us with honest trifles, to betray's In deepest consequence.— Cousins, a word, I pray you.
1-Banquo is wise enough to understand that the witches represent evil.
2-Banquo believes the witches and is ready to do anything to make his children kings.
3-Banquo suspects that Macbeth plans to kill Duncan to seize the throne.
4-Banquo supports Macbeth’s plan of murdering Duncan to get the throne.

In the scene where Macbeth and Banquo were revealed with the prophecy that Macbeth shall be King and that Banquo's children will also be kings, Banquo's response to the witches' prophecy was doubtful and full of suspicion. It implied that they must not believe too much, for they might fall to their demise.

I believe the correct answer is <span>1-Banquo is wise enough to understand that the witches represent evil.
The witches have prophesied that his children would be rulers, and even though he would like that to happen, he understands that the witches are evil and should not be trusted. He also saw that Macbeth believes them completely which unfortunately led him to his demise.</span><span>

Answer: For every 10˚ slope, the fire will double its speed. For example, if a fire is travelling at 5 km per hour along flat ground and it hits a 10˚ slope it will double in speed to 10 km per hour up the hill.

By increasing in speed the fire also increases in intensity, becoming even hotter.

The opposite applies to a fire travelling downhill. The flames reach less fuel, and less radiant heat pre-heats the fuel in front of the fire. For every 10˚ of downhill slope, the fire will halve its speed.

Fires tend to move more slowly as the slope decreases.

Vegetation (fuel)

Grass can burn early and quickly on hot, dry, windy days.  

Branches, twigs and leaves dropped from shrubs and trees become fine fuels, which burn easily. These can give off far more heat when they burn

Fibrous and dry tree bark can carry fire to treetops. The fire can then break away and spread further

Dry branches, twigs and leaves and other fine fuels found on the ground can also burn easily.

Weather conditions

Bushfires are unpredictable and vary greatly according to weather conditions. They often start on hot, dry, windy days.

Temperature

A string of hot days dries out vegetation, making it easier to burn. This can be made even worse by underlying dry conditions caused by lack of rain.  

The drier the vegetation the easier it will burn.

A fire spreads as a result of burning embers, radiant heat and direct flame contact.

Wind

Wind influences the:

speed at which a fire spreads

direction in which a fire travels and the size of the fire front

intensity of a fire – wind provides more oxygen

likelihood of spotting – burning pieces of leaves, twigs and bark (embers) that the wind carries ahead of the fire. These cause new 'spot fires' to ignite.

Wind change

A change in wind direction is one of the most dangerous influences on fire behavior. Many people who die in bushfires get caught during or after a wind change.

In Victoria, hot, dry winds typically come from the north and northwest and are often followed by a southwest wind change. In this situation the side of the fire can quickly become a much larger fire front.
