" The coal miner symbolizes the fossil fuel energy used to create electricity to power devices."

C. <em>The coal miner symbolizes the fossil fuel energy used to create electricity to power devices</em>. This is the correct option.

The man from the cartoon looks happy about using his device but he has a wrong idea about "green energy" since he thinks he is not using any animal fossil to power his device. His i-Pad is plugged in and the power <em>still</em> comes from a power source where a human being is hired to exploit fossil resources. If the energy had come from a true green source, the miner would not have been present. A green source could be powered by the sun or the wind.

These options are not right:

-A.The coal miner symbolizes the hard work that went into creating the internet devices we use today. ( The focus is not set on the origins of internet devices but on the way in which they are powered).

-B. The coal miner symbolizes jobs lost by books being printed online rather than on paper. ( A miner will never be related to printing books. Besides, books cannot be printed on line; they can be <em>downloaded </em>on line).

-D. The coal miner symbolizes the green energy used to create electricity that powers devices. ( A coal miner will not work at a green resource centre. Coal comes from fossils not from the sun or the wind).

Potlatches are also a common feature of the peoples of the Interior and of the Subarctic adjoining the Northwest Coast, though mostly without the elaborate ritual and gift-giving economy of the coastal peoples.

Which two moods are used for situations that are contrary to fact or for the conditions under which a situation might occur?
Gennadij [26K]

<u>Situations that are contrary to fact</u>, the mood is the conditional: third type. Example: If she<u> had got up</u> early, she <u>would not have missed </u>the bus. This example illustrates an imaginary situation; it did not happen. What truly happened was that the woman got up late and missed the bus. This was the fact. The structure is : the condition introduced by "if" carries the Past Perfect and the imaginary result carries would + perfect infinitive.

<u>Conditions under which a situation might occur, </u>the mood is the conditional: second type. Example: If she <u>bought</u> an alarm clock, she <u>would get up</u> on time. This statement reflects a possible solution to a problem; it is a speculative solution. She does not have an alarm clock, yet if she <em>bought</em> one . This is the subjunctive mood . What would the result be? She <u>would get up</u> on time. This is the conditional mood , second type.

How does APA formatting help avoid plagarism?​
evablogger [386]

Answer:

to avoid plagiarism, provide appropriate credit to your sources by adding author–date in-text citations for direct quotations and ideas (e.g., credit the originators of theories). If you model a study after one conducted by someone else, give credit to the author of the original study.
