Answer:

Apostrophe

Explanation:

Apostrophe, in literature, is actually an specific figure of speech. This figure of speech is usually represented by an exclamation, such as “Oh.” When using apostrophe, the speaker or writer is directing his or her words to an inanimate object or someone who is absent, or even dead, which is the case here.

How do human sweat and dogs pant
stealth61 [152]
My answer -

As mentioned above, humans have sweat glands over their entire bodies; the only place dogs (and cats, and many other animals with fur over their whole bodies) can get rid of excess heat is through the tongue. By the way, sweating/panting is NOT a means of getting rid of excess water; it is a way of getting rid of heat. We do this because of the process of evaporation. In changing from liquid to vapor, the water absorbs heat from the surface on which it is laying. Actually, most organisms do not want to get rid of excess water; they need to conserve it, but on very hot days animals "spend" the water to achieve the cooling.

P.s

Have an AWESOME!!!! day :)

Identify the number of verbs in the following sentence: "Technical and business writing is something anyone can learn."
sergiy2304 [10]
In this sentence, there are 3 verbs if we count Writing to be a verb. It is a gerund that functions as a noun, but is technically still a verb. Can and Learn are also verbs, so the correct answer should be 3.
