The correct answer here is A.

The word "gross" in this line from Frederick Douglas's famous speech named
<span>“What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” </span>means flagrant or extreme. This term is often used with the word "injustice" and it means unacceptable and obvious which is definition for flagrant as well.

Speech for pro death penalty
Kitty [74]
I think you mean u need a speech for for death penalty so here:
We all have the right to a opinion especially when it come to what we’re for and against having to do with what we support. Well I support have death penalties, and some people may think why?,Those people did something bad they don’t deserves it though, I disagree, if you murder someone or you did something worse than that, why should we put you amongst people in jail, so that you can kill them too. You killed someone and you don’t deserve to stay alive. With death penalty we stop criminal from doing bad things over and over. If that means executing the worst criminals so be it, at the end of the day at we can feel safer know that person is gone and aren’t going to commit any more crimes. I hope this helps

Which comparison would best support the idea presented in this paragraph?
asambeis [7]

The comparison that would best support the idea presented in this paragraph  is B, "much like the process of digestion, the phagocytes 'eat' and then digest the unwanted organisms". First of all, it is necessary to know the meaning of "engulf". To engulf, according to the Collins dictionary, means to completely cover or hide something, often in a sudden way. That's why B is the best comparison. Phagocytes eat the microorganisms and then digest them.
