Answer: Because they don't have five feet in the line or don't have an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one like iambic pentameter requires.
Explanation: In poetry, an Iambic Pentameter is a metrical speech that has 5 feet on every line. A foot is a pair of syllables in which there is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one.
The lines "As wicked dew as e'er my mother brushed" and "With raven’s feather from unwholesome fen" follow the rules of iambic pentameter, while the line "Upon thy wicked dam, come forth!" has just four feet, and the line "Drop on you both! A southwest blow on ye" doesn't have the unstressed syllables at first.
I believe it's answer choice C, Good luck!
Answer:
The mechanisms used to produce sound vary from one family of cetaceans to another. Marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are much more dependent on sound for communication and sensation than are land mammals, because other senses are of limited effectiveness in water. Sight is less effective for marine mammals because of the particulate way in which the ocean scatters light. Smell is also limited, as molecules diffuse more slowly in water than in air, which makes smelling less effective. However, the speed of sound is roughly four times greater in water than in the atmosphere at sea level. As sea mammals are so dependent on hearing to communicate and feed, environmentalists and cetologists are concerned that they are being harmed by the increased ambient noise in the world's oceans caused by ships, sonar and marine seismic surveys.[2]
