I think that yes, it could be an example of diverting peer pressure.

If your peers are forcing you to smoke, but you don't want to, you could say this and hope that this would be a sufficient answer, it diverts your unwillingness to smoke to your parents, and so the conflict with a peer  is also diffused.

Compare and contrast the major female characters in the novel: Daisy, Jordan, and Myrtle. How does each act towards men? What ar
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer and explanation:

Daisy, Jordan, and Myrtle are characters in "The Great Gatsby", a novel by author F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Daisy is Gatsby's love interest. Daisy was once a romantic. She was a popular girl who fell in love with Gatsby, a poor young officer who ended up leaving for war. After marrying Tom, Daisy became skeptical about men, although part of her romanticism remains. She loved Tom when they got married, but after being cheated on by him several times - even while giving birth to their daughter -, Daisy has changed her perspective on love. She now sees men as a necessary evil, something to complete her own emptiness. Tom is the husband she has to have, the man to protect her, to support her, to afford her luxuries. Gatsby is the lover she also has to have, to make her feel valued, seen, admired. She feels she can love them both for the different things they have to offer. And she knows how to seduce others too. Nick, the narrator, is Daisy's cousin, but even he is in complete awe of her.

Jordan is the most independent one. She is not emotionally unavailable but, unlike the other two women, she is as ready to open up as she is to shut down. She and the narrator, Nick, begin a sort of shallow relationship in which she is the admired and he is the admirer. At least at the beginning for, after some time, Nick realizes the superficiality and hypocrisy of all the other characters, including Jordan. She is morally flexible, ignoring sins, crimes and faults as long as she is having fun and enjoying life. She is treated with respect by both Gatsby and Tom - Tom even feels protective towards her. But she knows how to take care of herself. Her self-esteem and social ability are more than enough to keep her safe in a world full of phonies.

Myrtle is Wilson's wife and Tom's lover. Tom represents everything she wishes to possess - wealth, beauty, strength, freedom. While Wilson owns a garage/gas station in the Valley of Ashes, Tom keeps an apartment for Myrtle in New York, where they party wildly. Not much is shown about the way Wilson treats Myrtle until later in the book. When he figures out she is seeing someone else, he gets so angry at her that he feels sick. It is then that we see his controlling side; he decides he will take her away with him. Tom is also abusive toward Myrtle. He does spoil her a little, giving her a bit of luxury. But he has no scruples beating her when she mentions his wife's name. Still, that isn't enough to drive her away from him. She is used to abusive men - only Tom offers more perks than Wilson. Nick, the narrator, doesn't think much of Myrtle. She is attractive, that's for sure. But he sees her as Tom's lover from the beginning.

Explain the steps of preparing vermicompost.<br>pls help me..bro don't greed for points.​
larisa [96]

Explanation:

Step 1: Buy and Prepare the Bin

Drill holes in the sides of the Rubbermaid storage bin, bottom and top (too few or too many holes can be a bad thing, so keep the total number around 20) for air circulation and drainage. Buy a bin that is opaque and not clear – the worms need for it to be dark inside.

Step 2: Find a Spot for the Compost Bin

Placement of the compost bin is important. Many apartment complexes don’t allow storage on balconies, so you may have to strategically hide the compost bin so it is not visible from the outside. Also keep the bin in a shady spot. You don’t want the worms to get too hot or have too much light.

Step 3: Shred Paper for Bedding

Red worm compost vermiculture bin

Shred newspaper into thin strips to make bedding for the worms you will add. Avoid glossy paper, such as the paper ads are often printed on. Newspaper and the paper inside of phone books are safe for composting worms because the inks used in this papers are strictly regulated by the government. Any other paper is questionable, so recycle any other paper in another way. Cardboard, such as toilet paper tubes, and egg cartons are also suitable for worm bedding. (Glossy boxes, such as cereal boxes are not appropriate.) Spray the paper so that it is moist, but not soaking wet. Always keep the bedding at this moist consistency.

Step 4: Add Food and Wait

Add a little bit of food and a small scoop of dirt and wait about two weeks. The food grows a good crop of microbes that the worms will eat.

Step 5: Add Worms

Eisenia fetid, or red worms, are the best worms for your vermicomposting bin. You can find boxes of them at your local garden center or order them online for about $20. They should breed in your bin, so you should only need to invest in worms once. Don’t put earthworms in your bin. They will die and your compost will fail.

Step 6: Feed the Bin

You will be "feeding the bin" (instead of feeding the worms) because although worms do eat some of the waste material put into the compost bin, they mostly feed on the microbes that break down the waste. Good food to put in the bin includes fruits and vegetables (feed citrus in moderation), coffee grounds, tea bags and crushed eggshells. For foods to add only in moderation include citrus, starches (bread, rice, etc.), spicy peppers, onions, oily food and sugary food. Never add meat or dairy, or any kind of human or pet waste. Don’t add too much food. Watch the bin and see what foods break down and what foods don’t. Foods like lettuce break down right away, while banana peels take a long time to decompose. When you feed the bin, add new shredded newspaper or spray with water, if needed.

Step 7: Harvest the Castings

In a few months, there may be some nutrient-rich worm castings that you can harvest from your bin and use as fertilizer for your garden plants. To harvest the castings, get another container and a plastic bag with holes cut into it. Place the bag over the top of the new container, and make sure it’s taught over the opening. Put the new container in the sun, and start putting the contents of your worm bin onto the top of the bag. The worms will burrow through the holes and into the new container because they don’t want to be out in the sun. This way you can separate the castings from the worms. When you are done harvesting, put the worms back into their compost bin.

Vermicompost Bin Concerns

For those of you new to composting, you may be concerned about insects and smells. You shouldn't notice any smell inside or outside on the balcony. Insects, on the other hand, can get out of control if you overfeed the bin. Fruit flies are quite the annoyance, but they are said to be beneficial to compost bins. There are strips you can buy and homemade remedies to get fruit flies if their numbers grow to plague proportions. It is not realistic to think that you won’t have any pesky insects, so before setting up a bin, think about how you will deal with fruit flies.
