Answer: B. a star at the center of our solar system

Explanation:

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that is placed beside another noun or noun phrase with the intention of renaming it. In order words, the appositive gives further information about the noun or phrase it changes. Appositives usually come between two commas, unless they are restrictive.

In the structure we are analyzing here, the appositive is the sentence "a star at the center of our solar system". Not only it comes between two commas, but it also has the intention of explaining what the sun is by giving further information about it.

Answer:

Question 1 - round and dynamic.

Question 2 - Margarita's grandmother passed away, which inspired her to volunteer at a nursing home.

Explanation:

Question 1:

In literature, characters who change and grow over the course of a particular text are known as dynamic characters. If we know a lot of their characteristics, then they are also round characters. On the other hand, static characters do not change and we know only one or two of their defining characteristics, which also makes them flat.

Question 2:

As stated previously, round characters are those who change and grow due to some conflict. In option B, the conflict is found in the passing of Margarita's grandmother. As a result, Margarita grew and decided to volunteer at a nursing home.

Questions 3, 4, 5, and 6 are impossible to answer without the Module or the short story.

Match the line length to the term. 1. five feet monometer 2. one foot tetrameter 3. two feet hexameter 4. seven feet trimeter 5.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

1. five feet - pentameter

2. one foot - monometer

3. two feet - dimeter

4. seven feet - heptameter

5. four feet - tetrameter

6. three feet - trimeter

7. six feet - hexameter

8. eight feet - octameter

Explanation:

This question refers to meter in poetry, which is done by counting the number of syllables. However, different types of meter will count syllables in different ways. An iambic pentameter, for example, will consider an unstressed syllable plus a stressed one as one foot. Each line will repeat that pattern five times, which is why it is called pentameter.

To match the columns above, we need to know the meaning of the different prefixes used:

mono - one

di - two

tri - three

tetra - four

penta - five

hexa - six

hepta - seven

octa - eight

Remember that those same prefixes are used in other fields of knowledge? For instance, in geometry, a pentagon is a figure with five sides and five angles.
