C. It contributes to the emotion of safety and comfort.


The poem is an offering of safety and comfort. The poem repeats "I love you" throughout as part of his message to his audience. The poem is meant to be a place where the audience can find safety and comfort. In the stanza with the word hogan, he tells the reader to knock on the door and he will "make you feel safe." Even though the speaker addresses the emotions of the reader as possible feeling tired, overwhelmed, lost, directionless, cold and lonely, the speaker is offering safety and comfort to help the reader because of his love for the reader.

Why do most people in South America live near the coast?​
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

I am taking World Geo right now....we just studied South America. There are several factors as to why the population is concentrated along the coast. For starters the rainforests are not good for farming...there is no nutrients in the soil to sustain agriculture ( all of the nutrients are in the native vegetation) Another reason why people live along the coast is because major cities are along there. People migrate to the cities to look for work because the poor have no farmland and they need jobs to make a living. Alot of the good farmland is still held in large estates by the rich, which was passed down from generation to generation from when South America was being colonized by the Spanish and the Portugese.

Decribe three traits of sea snakes that make them well-suited to living underwater.
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Sea snakes have flattened tails for swimming, allowing them to swim faster than if they had the tail of a regular snake. The flat shape of the tail reduces drag, as well as providing a larger surface to push the water with. However, this makes moving on land difficult. They also have valves over their nostrils that close underwater. This prevents water from entering their nose as they swim. Sea snakes have very strong venom that they use to kill their prey. They also produce an enzyme that starts digesting the animal as soon as it takes the first bite. Their diet consists of mostly fish, crustaceans, and eggs. The venom and enzyme results in little room for their prey to escape, making it easier for the sea snake to sustain itself.

hope this helps.
