Hyperbole. It’s an extreme exaggeration
julia-pushkina [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. Hyperbole

Explanation:

Remember that the hyperbole is a figure of speech in which the author exaggerates to an extreme in an obvious way. This is done in order to make emphasis or to describe something in a more creative way. In this case the author wants to emphasize the fact that he has been reading Moby Dk for so much time he feels years have passed. As he is a junior in high school we know he is young so the exaggeration is evident.

American vultures used to be classified in the same family as African vultures. Which discovery caused scientists to reclassify
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

DNA evidence revealed the American vultures share more recent ancestor with the Storks

Explanation:

The hooded vultures that is mostly found in the African continent have a close resemblance with the American vultures and were traditionally classified to belong to the Falcon family.

However, it was observed that the American vultures shared a similar behavior with Stork which is not common to the vulture found in Africa, including the hooded vulture. The Stork and the American vulture exhibit the behavior of urinating on their legs when being overheated. When the urine gets evaporated, it helps them to cool their body temperature.

This shared behavior between the storks and the American vultures led scientists into using molecular analysis in analyzing the DNA of the hooded vultures found in Africa, the American vultures, and the stork.

Evidence from the DNA analysis later revealed that the American vultures and the storks share a more common DNA sequences than African vultures and American vultures do.

A large area undergoes the same amount of metamorphism. All rock reach the same metamorphism grade. However, after the metamorph
Mrrafil [7]

The only explanation in this situation is that the parent rocks of the marble and slate were different. This indicates that the region once held both shale and limestone before metamorphism.

In reference to rocks, it denotes those that have undergone metamorphism—rocks that may have started as sedimentary, igneous, or another type of metamorphic rock but has since undergone "recrystallization" and taken on an entirely new form—under new temperature and pressure conditions.

For instance, when limestone is heated and compressed, it changes into marble, a more coarsely crystalline and occasionally banded rock.

When shale, a clay-rich, soft rock, is compressed, slate, a tougher rock, is created.

The alterations are frequently even more remarkable, resulting in the formation of new minerals, including garnet, mica, and tourmaline (as seen in schist).

If from the low tide to the high tide there was a break of 6h and 4m than the next tides will happen at the same rate:

8:35 + 6:04 = 14:39 = next low tide.
14:39 + 6:04 = 20:43 = next high tide.

Note that two same tides occur about 12h to 12h and 25m apart, and that is the case here:

14:39 - 2:31 = 12:08 hours apart
20:42 - 8:35 = 12:07 hours apart.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
