The main purpose is to:

highlight for readers the hardships that Eileen Collins overcame

Explanation:

"Eileen Collins – NASA's First Female Shuttle Commander to Lead Next Shuttle Mission" is a text that bases itself not on the facts of the mission or the the journey of the protagonist once she becomes the shuttle commander.

The story instead focuses on how she overcame bias and odds to become what she has become.

It is a story of her struggles and trials and tribulations that have brought her this far in life.

In your own words what you have learned about the changing relationship between England and the Catholic Church. Use examples fr
zloy xaker [14]

The relationship between the English monarchy and the Catholic Church kept changing during the Renaissance and Reformation. In the medieval period, the Roman Catholic Church wielded more power than the English monarchy. However, things began to change after Henry VIII inherited the British throne. Henry VIII's opposition to the Catholic Church stemmed from the fact that the church refused to grant his divorce. Besides, Henry VIII wanted control of church property in England. Henry VIII split from the Roman Catholic Church and declared himself head of the Church of England. In response to Henry VIII's defiance, the pope excommunicated him.

Henry VIII was succeeded by his son Edward VI, who strongly supported Protestant beliefs. He made changes to the laws of the Church of England and made England a completely Protestant country. However, Edward’s reign was short-lived. After his death, his sister Mary ascended to the throne. Mary I was staunchly Catholic and worked to undo the shift toward Protestantism in England.

Yet another major shift in the relationship between England and the Catholic Church occurred when Mary died and her sister Elizabeth I became the queen. Queen Elizabeth restored Protestantism in England and organized the Church of England by banning Catholic practices.

Are the needs of people ever more important than the needs of animals and the planet
Ronch [10]
Personally to me no. I say this because people use up all the resources that we can, even if it kills the world. We have destroyed trillions of lives because we simply wanted to, or we "needed" it to build more houses to expand when there is no need. We do things that are not needed and kill other things in the world. This is my personal thought about it.
