<span>Answer: Hardin's metaphor describes a lifeboat bearing 50 people, with room for ten more. The lifeboat is in an ocean surrounded by a hundred swimmers. The "ethics" of the situation stem from the dilemma of whether (and under what circumstances) swimmers should be taken aboard the lifeboat.</span>

_2. The stars and the sun and the moon guided early explorers.<br> Where to put the commas?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.

Explanation:

The literary device in which the same conjunction is repeated multiple times is called the polysyndeton. The conjunction most often used like this is <em>and.</em>

This is an unconventional use of conjunctions. It would be more natural to write the given sentence like this:

  • <em>The stars, the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.</em>

Since this use is not conventional, there are no strict rules regarding punctuation. In literature, there are versions with and without the commas before the conjunctions. If you need to put the commas somewhere, you'd put one before each conjunction. The given sentence would look like this:

  • <em>The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.</em>

I’ll give 25 p and mark brainliest
Novay_Z [31]

The alliteration is that she's telling you how her life was and how some days it was good and other days it wan't so good. She uses alliteration because she wants her reader to know how days were during her life. Although she wasn't a slave she still had a hard life and the alliteration she uses represents that and how she wishes things were easier and she's saying that life was hard for folks back then. I hope this helps.
