Answer:

Rewiring, sort of an ¨upgrade¨ or maturing.

They are adaptive to prepare for their next phase of evolution, the consideration of leaving home.

Explanation:

According to the researcher David Dobbs, the purpose of the massive changes that are undergone by teenage brains is with the purpose of maturing the brain within itself to face possible upcoming changes.

The process of being ¨adaptive¨ is called as such due to the fact that during this period of time, the teenage brain undergoes a ¨rewiring¨ in order to prepare for a time when the individual must face changes such as leaving the comfort zone of home and face more daring challenges like coping with daily decisions and tasks outside in the world, as well as socializing with others.

20. Which of the following sentences is written in the passive voice?
iragen [17]
The answer is A.
An easy way to tell if a sentence is using the passive voice is if you add “by zombies” after the first verb. If the sentence still makes sense after you add “by zombies”, then it’s passive voice. If it doesn’t make sense anymore, then it’s active voice. Also, usually if there is more than one verb in the sentence, it’s passive.

How much time passes from the beginning of the story to the end? (The Man to Send Rain Clouds)
Korolek [52]

Answer: The story begins at the start of the day and ends by that same night.

Explanation:

We can assume that Leon and Kenn find Teofilo during the morning because it is stated that they get back on time to see that Louise and Teresa had set the table for lunch.

There are several references to the sun that allow us to set the time frame in one single day. By the end, after the priest's visit, the sun was already gone, showing that the story ends by the end of the day.
