or d

Answer:

D

Explanation:

This option certainly supports nature itself as an intelligent force by attributing knowledge of how to function to the life inside the body described in the passage. The life force is said to exert an influence on the body with certain skill that the excerpt describes as cunning.

Use of words with such a purpose usually refer to motivation and in the context of this passage gives an essential vitality to nature (life) keen enough to make decisiones and influence bodies.

Macbeth's tragic flaw was greediness for power. The witches knew his weakness and they used it against him. Power thirst led him to his downfall. He wanted power and was too greedy to acquire it legitimately, rather he was consumed by a fit of greed to have it all and it ruined him

Which ONE is a better poem like which one has more methods and techniques that you can write about???
adoni [48]

Answer: If you're asking which might be easier to write about I would say exposure because it uses more advanced words which make it sound nicer to write about and it also is a little easier to understand what it is talking about which should help you with writing on it. I personally prefer Exposure but it's your choice.
