Metaphor; the speaker claims he is being compared to an a&&. As the comparison does not use words like "like" or "as," it is a metaphor, not a simile.

kap26 [50]

<em>1. In what ways are carnivorous plants stronger and more resilient than other plants?  </em>

  • <em>Despite the fact that they have to get nutrients from their preys and not only from the sun, carnivorous flowers have developed a natural instinct to hunt, this is that they have to attract their food to eat.   </em>

<em>2. In what ways are they weaker?   </em>

  • <em>Unlike other plants, carnivorous plants have to get nutrients from their prey. This is because they live in places where the soil have no nutrients. Another weakness is that their population is only of about 600 species, unlike the other plants that are over a quarter of a million. These plants have difficulties to adapt to different environments, they cannot adapt to rich soil, and they have to hunt to get the rest of the nutrients they need to live.  </em>

explain how lady macbeth's actions in act 5 scene 1 draw meaning from the images of blood darkness and sleep that have run throu
snow_tiger [21]
The image of blood is shown through Lady Macbeth's constant action like she is washing her hands. She exclaims that all of the washing in the world cannot get the blood off her hands. This is almost as if she is seeing her guilt on her hands and trying to clear herself of that guilt. 

Darkness is shown through the fact that Lady Macbeth seems to be afraid of the darkness. The doctor says that she requires a candle to be by her bedside at all times and refuses to be in the dark. 

The idea of sleep, or the loss of sleep is reinforced through this scene as Lady Macbeth is sleepwalking. Right after he commits the murder of Duncan, Macbeth is afraid that he hears whispering in the castle that he has "murdered sleep" and that the house will "sleep no more". The fact that Lady Macbeth is sleepwalking shows that she cannot truly sleep or rest because of the guilt of all the murders.


This scene redeems Lady Macbeth in the eyes of the audience because it shows that she is actually feeling guilt and remorse for the crimes she convinced Macbeth to commit. The fact that she is wrestling so hard with her conscience shows that she understands what she has done, and that type of remorse and guilt can help redeem a character in the eyes of the audience, to see her feel pain for what she's done.
