what is the outcome when twain tries to persuade different wild and tame animals to accumulate vast stores of food (line 52-64)?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The outcome when Mark Twain tries to persuade different wild and tame animals to accumulate vast stores of food was that they did not do it.

This example shows us of never ending hunger of humans to store more than necessary.

Explanation:

The Lowest Animal is a paper written by Mark Twain of his fictional experiment done with animals.

In lines 52-64, Twain asserts that he tried to persuade animals, both wild and tame, to accumulate vast stores of food line. But he remarks that no one stored food more than they required. Even the bees collected only what was required for them for winters.

This experiment is suggestive of human's nature of greed and hunger for more. Through this experiment, Twain is conveying the message that humans are the animals that comes at the lowest animals and not the other way around.

Select the sentence that correctly uses a comma with a transition.
Assoli18 [71]

After analyzing the punctuation and the transitions in each sentence, we can select the one that correctly uses a comma as the following:

A. On the other hand, grapes that are picked in the fall are usually sweeter and juicier than those picked in the summer.

<h3>What are transitions?</h3>

Transitions are words or phrases that help connect ideas inside the structure of a text. Transitions can be used for different purposes, for instance:

  • Comparison
  • Contrast
  • Emphasis

In the sentence we are analyzing here, the transition is the phrase "on the other hand," which is used to indicate contrast. This phrase should be set off by commas, which means letter A is the correct option.
