Excerpt from Thermometer Pills--Tracy Wilson Over the past ten years more than two dozen athletes have died from the medical con

dition known as heatstroke. Heatstroke occurs when the body’s internal temperature becomes so elevated that its cooling system begins shutting down. Who is most at risk? Surprisingly, it is younger athletes. They often either do not recognize or ignore the warning signs until it’s too late. To make matters worse, children’s bodies are much less efficient than adults at cooling themselves. A promising new product hopes to end the all too common heatstroke trend. It is called a thermometer pill. Answer the following question related to the excerpt from from Thermometer Pills: Which statement provides the most concrete supporting evidence for the author's argument that heatstroke can be very dangerous to younger athletes?
A) On average the cost is $50.00 per pill.

B) While these tiny lifesavers have proven to be effective, they are quite expensive.

C) The player is then rushed indoors and placed in an ice bath to rapidly decrease his or her body temperature.

D) Over the past ten years more than two dozen athletes have died from the medical condition known as heatstroke.

In this passage from Henry David Thoreau's Walden, the narrator uses strong sensory language to create clear images - to, in essence, paint a clear picture in words - of the forest and the hills. The narrator is able, through the use of such strong sensory language and imagery to give the read a clear image of what he is describing, which, in turns, makes the scene he is describing come to life.

3. If you wanted to explain how trees use photosynthesis to produce oxygen, what type of visual aid would you use?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: a diagram showing the stages of photosynthesis and the tree parts involved

Explanation:

Primarily, the question asks you to explain something relative to trees, excluding the second answer choice. Next, the question goes on to ask for a visual aid to explain how photosynthesis is utilized to produce oxygen, indiciating the need for a model of internal processes a tree takes, as photosynthesis and oxygeb creation happen inside a tree or plant. and the last choice does not explain how photosynthesis helps with oxygen production, making the first choice the strongest response.
