Read the paragraph from The Hot Zone and the summary that follows it.

English
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: A) Remove the phrase “It is petrifying” because it expresses a personal feeling and D) Add the phrase “and spread throughout the human species” to the end of the statement to more fully express the central idea.

Explanation: When writing a summary of the central idea of a text, we have to express the ideas in a brief and clear way, without including personal opinions or irrelevant details. In the given paragraph from "The Hot Zone" we can see that the main idea is that viruses can "come alive" even after death, and spread throughout the human species, so to improve the given summary we should remove the phrase “It is petrifying” because it expresses a personal feeling (and it is not objective) and also add the phrase “and spread throughout the human species” to the end of the statement because it is an important part of the main idea.

Describe Melantho’s character. Define the term foil and explain how Melantho is used as a foil for Eurycleria. (The Odyssey)
Pavlova-9 [17]

A foil in literature describes a character who contrasts with another character in order to make comparisons and highlight certain traits between these two persons.

Both Melantho and Eurycleia are servants of Odysseus. While Melantho is unloyal, (sleeping with the suitors while Odysseus is away) and treating him rudely when he returns disguised as a beggar, Eurycleia remains devoted and kind. Melantho is used as a foil for Eurycleia to showcase her good traits.

Ava conducted an experiment to determine respiratory rates during different activities. She counted the number of breaths per mi
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

There is an increase in the number of breaths per minute as activity increases because:

As activity increases, the oxygen needs of cells increase.

Explanation:

<u>When we exercise, our muscles work harder than they do when our bodies are resting. For that reason, the muscle cells need more oxygen - think of oxygen as the fuel we consume; the more we move, the more fuel we need. To provide that extra oxygen the cells need so much, we begin to breathe faster. For that reason, the best option for the question above is: as activity increases, the oxygen needs of cells increase.</u>
