The correct answer is C. It is likely to be biased

Explanation:

A credible source is one whose information can be trusted which is determined by different factors that include the date of the source as sources created a long time ago are not credible; the author of the source as only experts on the field are credible and the information provided in the source as this need to be supported by facts and be objective which means it is not biased or influenced by interests or personal judgments. In the case of the source found by Tom, this source deals with the topic Tom is interested; it is updated as it was written in 2016 and t also has a credible source because it was written by Dr. Jane Nelson- However, it is probable this source is biased because the website belongs to the nuclear power plant and therefore, it is more likely this source includes only positive information about the use of nuclear energy which means it is influenced by he interests of the nuclear plant. Thus, the reason that makes this source lack of credibility is that it is likely to be biased.

Galina-37 [17]

Contrastive distribution occurs when  two sounds placed in the same context produce different meanings.  This is the case in the sounds [k] and [x] . For example: <em>[kano] 'do' versus [xano] 'lose'. </em>

The same happens with the sounds [ç] and [c]. They are in constrastive distribution as in shown in the following example: <em>[çino] 'pour' versus [cino] 'move </em>

In complementary distribution, where one sound occurs the other cannot.  This is the case in  the sounds [k] and [c] The first sound  (palatal stop) appears before front vowels whereas the second sound (velar stop) appears elsewhere.

The sounds [ç] and [x] are also in complementary distribution. As in the previous example, the palatal appears before front vowels and the velar appears elsewhere

Why is Calixta happy at the end of the story? How can everyone be happy at the end of the story? What does the author's attitude
babymother [125]

This question is about "the storm" by Kate Chopin

Answer Explanation:

1. Calixta is happy at the end of the story because her son and her husband arrive home safely, even in the face of the storm, besides, she does not feel any remorse for the adultery she committed.

2. Everyone is happy because she has a family that was not destroyed by her actions, and they know that adultery is impossible to be discovered, so their lives, as they are used to, will be maintained.

3. Reading the short story, we have the impression that the author does not encourage adultery, but does not see it as something capable of destroying a family and ruining the marriage, but rather as something that can be kept secret, without hurting anyone.

4. The only moral tone that can be considered in this story is that people should do what they want and make them happy regardless of the rules established by society.
