Antediluvian is an adjective and has two meanings:
1) of or belonging to the time before the Biblical flood
2) Ridiculously old fashioned or greatly out of date  (sometimes used in a humorous sense)
Here, I'll use it in a sentence: 

I often feel my mother wears clothes that are so antediluvian, she never has to worry about blending in with the crowds.

<span>As soon as the latest iPhone came out, the older models became antediluvian to tech experts.
</span>
Hope this helped! :)

Which line from "I Am Offering this Poem" by Jimmy Santiago Baca is an example of simile? A. When winter comes to cover you B. K
rjkz [21]
The answer is B. Keep it like a warm coat. A tip when finding similes is to look for phrases such as “like” or “as”, it almost always signals that there is a simile. Since “like” is in the phrase “Keep it like a warm coat”, we can say that it is a simile. As a reference, metaphors do not use key words like “like” and “as”, but compare something to a not humanlike object.

10 examples , about the animals and the people; the similarities and differences
N76 [4]
Humans and Animals both have similar social skills.

We have facial expression similar to that of a mouse.

Just like Humans, Cows also have regional accents

Dolphins, just like Humans get occasionally high

Like Humans some Animals are also homosexual.

House building skills.

The communication skills.

The difference:


Physical superiority

The animal kingdom
Today, in every biology class, one can learn that the human body is assigned to the animal kingdom. Genetic research makes it increasingly clearer how little man distinguishes himself from other animals. The differences are so minimal that one has long been planning to replace defective human organs with animal (e.g., pig). Purely physically or genetically, the differences between a butterfly and an elephant are much greater than between a human and a chimpanzee. Therefore, biologically there is no point in separating humans as much from the rest of the animal world as some would like to.

Culture / tools
Especially in different groups of monkeys, one could also find a cultural tradition within the species. Which also brought down this privilege of the people. At the same time, such different cultural manifestations also show that the animals are not only genetically conditioned to respond to environmental conditions. For example, use and manufacture of certain tools within a group are passed from generation to generation.4 Only a few decades ago, it was thought that the manufacture of tools was unique to humans. However, Cambridge University researchers have proven that crows are true masters of tooling. The animals are able to skillfully bend a wire into a hook to fish a small container of food from a larger container.5


Self-confidence
To be aware of oneself and think about oneself. This has long been considered a major difference between animal and human consciousness. Today, many psychological studies have shown that even in this respect, human consciousness differs only slightly from the animal. Especially with monkeys and dolphins one established undoubtedly a self-confidence.
The often asked question, whether animals can recognize themselves in the mirror, could definitely be affirmed, at least for the great apes.


Intelligence
But man is clearly smarter than the animals!? Intelligence usually refers to the ability of the logical intellect. No animal can solve a complex integral equation, but many people can not either. In an intelligence test, an adult chimpanzee would fare better than a newborn human child. Is therefore the chimpanzee more human than the human infant?

Since humans develop more slowly after birth than many other animals, even monkeys of the same age are intellectually superior in the first few months.7 And chimpanzees work faster and more accurately than humans on the computer. This is the result of a study by Japanese researchers at the University of Kyoto, in which an attempt was made with students to reproduce series of numbers that flash only briefly on the test monitor.
For the demarcation between man and animal, therefore, intelligence is not suitable.


Hope it helps!! Have a good day❤️✨
