A. Imagery
The sentence paints a picture in your head therefore making it imagery. If simile was an option, the answer would probably be simile because it compares how fast the blood is pouring to pouring wine.
Answer:
C. It involves the thoughts and feelings a person experiences.
Explanation:
Consciousness is a state of awareness. This awareness include the thoughts and feelings of a person, a perception of his environment, the stream of thoughts going through the brain, the feeling of wakefulness. The mental processes running through the mind of a person exemplify consciousness.
Consciousness is a widely studied concept in psychology. There are different conditions wherein the state of consciousness is disrupted. They include, dreaming and sleep. The dream sleep especially, is hugely characterized with a disruption of memory. Indulgence in alcohol and drugs as well as accidents that could lead to amnesia can result in a disruption of consciousness.
Paragraphs 4-5 contribute to the development of ideas in the text because they explain how the gene drive changes mosquitoes’ DNA, as stated in option B.
<h3>What are paragraphs 4-5 about?</h3>
After reading paragraphs 4-5 of the text "Gene editing wiped out a population of mosquitoes in lab tests," we can tell they contribute the development of ideas by explaining how the gene drive works.
According to the information in paragraphs 4-5, the gene drive is used to change mosquitoes' DNA so that the female mosquito will not bite or procreate. By doing so, scientists would help prevent the spread of malaria, since it is through biting that the female mosquito transmits the disease.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option B as the correct answer.
The missing paragraphs 4-5 are the following:
The researchers changed the mosquitoes’ genes with a gene drive. Gene drives use the molecular “scissors” known as CRISPR/Cas9 to copy and paste themselves into an organism’s DNA at precise locations. They’re designed to break the rules of inheritance. They can quickly spread a genetic tweak to all offspring.
The new gene drive breaks a mosquito gene called doubles∈x. Female mosquitoes that inherit two copies of the broken gene develop like males. They are unable to bite or lay eggs. Being unable to bite means they can’t spread the malaria parasite. Males and females that inherit only one copy of the disrupted gene develop normally and are fertile. Males don’t bite, whether they have the gene drive or not.
