Answer: B. her national citizenship.

In the story "Borders," by Thomas King, we encounter several themes. However, an important one is that of identity. The story describes how Native Americans are being denied their identity by having to conform to the notions of nations and borders of the colonizers. In the story, the mother is asked whether she is Canadian or American, to which she replies "Blackfoot" every time.

Can someone please write me a conclusion about unrealistic beauty standards? No plagiarism.
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

With the rise of the media and technology in the modern age, we all can observe how unrealistic beauty standards have become the norm. Every day, people are surrounded by media portrays of famous people that send us the message that this is how we should look. What media often fails to explain to us is that <u>celebrities have different things </u>that help them look the way they are. <u>Firstly, we can not all genetically be born to look the same and by popular standards</u>. We must remember there are a lot of things in our looks we can't alter, and that is okay. Celebrities have so much more resources to spend on the way they look –<u> to buy more expensive makeup, cosmetics, clothes that fit them, employ whole teams of people who will focus only on their look and style, etc</u>. They can also afford quality<u> plastic surgery</u> more often, and they are usually required to make some of these alterations to their image to keep their status of celebrity. While we are bombarded by the pictures of perfect people in movies and advertisements, we often fail to remember there are so many factors that alter someone’s appearance.

Finally, with the rise of technology, there are many ways one can make someone look good on-screen. There are <u>particular poses, angles, and ways</u> to make a great photograph of someone, and there are many <u>programs and filters</u> that can change someone’s appearance. No one puts a picture of themselves on social media if they think they look ugly, and this goes both for celebrities and common people. Every time we open Instagram or TikTok, we see people that give us only their best. <u>We think this is how we should look when in reality no one can look like they do on social media all the time.</u>

This does not mean we should separate ourselves from social media or movies completely, but remember, when consuming them, we only get one aspect of someone’s look. However, <u>there should be movement in media to change these unrealistic standards, especially the ones that are proven to be harmful </u>(like the idealization of thinness that affects the rise of eating disorders). P<u>eople working in media production and realization should think more about the effect of the images that are shared worldwide. </u>There should be more body types in mainstream media, more people of color, people with disabilities, more natural and common people, and more talk of equality. Only with this erasure of unreachable beauty standards can we ensure that future generations will feel good in their skin and grow up to be satisfied with themselves how they are, not yearning towards the imaginary goal.

Which two tasks does a geologist perform?
timama [110]

Geology is an earth science that studies particularly everything pertaining to the composition of the Earth, its ground, soil, water, rocks, anything that is pertaining to the characteristics of the Earth, and sometimes other planets. There are many tasks that geologists perform, but in a nutshell, they work mostly with governments, educational institutions such as universities, and most particularly the construction, oil, gas and mineral industries, studying the composition of the ground and other components of the earth, to establish the possiblity of mineral, oil and gas presence, the usefulness of a terrain for safe construction and also to build models that foretell possible natural disasters like earthquakes, and others. These are just a few of the many jobs performed by geologists, but two specific ones are: A: prepares scaled drawings of construction sites for clients, as they are the ones who, with mathematical models and earth-structure study, can tell if something can be built or not in a terrain, and C: Investigates the formation process of rocks, as this is basically the backbone of geology, the study of the composites of the earth.
