Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

"A. a degree is a way to measure ingredients in a recipe  B. a degree is a type of measuring stick like a ruler  C. a degree is a form of temperature measurement  D. a degree measures academic success in school"

Answer:

C. a degree is a form of temperature measurement

Explanation:

As you already know, the word "degree" can be used to indicate a temperature measurement, that is, this word can indicate measure, quantity. This concept fits perfectly in the section shown in the question above, because it allows the reader to understand that Mr. Pontellier was totally uncomfortable, since there was no way to measure his comfort so low that it was.

Katen [24]

It is false because a scientific method is a lot more complex and has many steps which need to be fulfilled for it to be valid. Rationality and common sense are not enough for something to be scientific as sometimes something can be irrational or almost nonsensical and yet scientific.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Yesterday, my little sisters challenged me to a game of Scrabble. Usually, I avoid playing games with them because they're terrible cheaters. But pleading wore me down, and it was raining, so I agreed. We set up the board on the dining room table, removing Princess, the cat that likes to sleep . Then we picked our tiles. There are only two blank tiles, and I got them both! Things were looking good. The girls obviously didn’t like tiles: They kept trying to sneak their hands into the tile bag for new ones. There is not much else to say about the game, except that it went on and on and on. When it finally ended, I was more than ready to get out of  there. The score? Lisa: 311. Janet: 296. Me: 64. Ugh. My sisters, of course, had a great time. already begging me to play
