Definition:

Stereotypes are ideas we have from countries, nationalities, people, etc. that are widely shared by people, due to the spreading of them. When something is a stereotype, we call it stereotypical.

Etymology:

The word comes from the French adjective <em>stéréotype. "</em>Stereo-" means "fixed" or "unchangable" and "-type" means "impression" (in this case do not refer to a physical impression, rather a mental impression) and also typical. So, "fixed/unchangable" + "impression" = a fixed and typical impression of a specific person or group of people.

Hope it helped,

Write an essay on "wildlife" conservation​
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Wildlife, like trees, is also a domestic asset that not only helps to maintain the ecological balance but also benefits from financial, recreational and aesthetic points of perspective. There was a time when the number of wild animals was quite large when human interference was minimum and there was no issue with their safety or conservation. But, with the development of farming, settlement, industrial and other development activities, and primarily due to man’s greed, the number of wild animals gradually decreased and decreased. As a consequence, several animal species have become extinct and several are on the brink of being so. The Wildlife Conservation Essay is an insight into the requirements of conserving wildlife globally.

Wildlife Conservation Essay

Deforestation

Deforestation is also a major cause of wildlife loss. Mass murders of wild animals are taking place all over the globe for their meat, bones, fur, teeth, hair, skin, etc. The need for conservation of wildlife has now become a necessity.

Population growth, agricultural and livestock development, urban and road building, and pollution are among the many pressures on wildlife’s natural habitat. In addition to illegal hunting, the decrease of habitat and its degradation has endangered the biodiversity of the widespread areas.

Wildlife preservation does not imply blanket protection for all species of fauna and flora; rather, it means adequate, judicious control over the multiplication of crops and animals that communicate to provide a suitable atmosphere for the man whose very life is at risk today.

Short poem about social media impact on teens please help out
Marat540 [252]

To help, I wrote an example of the poem prompt you gave(Images -- should read from left to right) In the example, I used irony to show contrast and contradictory from the speaker's tone and veiw at the begining of the poem compared to at the end of the poem. I tried to incorporate a story into the poem because I figured out a good way to tell a--what is a rather mediocre--story with the given prompt. I incorporated this story into the poem simply by sticking to an ABB rhyme scheme throughout the entire thing. There are of course an endless number of ways one could write a poem, for poetry is often seen as more of a creative, expressive form of writing rather than a technical one. If you have an idea and you can manage to formulate it in stanzas, there's not much that can go wrong.
