Answer:

2. Curiosity can lead people into danger.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" covers the whole journey of the protagonist Odysseus' journey back to Ithaca. Encountering numerous obstacles of both gods and mortals, he details how he endured hardships to get back to his family and kingdom.

The given passage is from Book IX when he and his men had came upon the "<em>land of the lawless and inhuman Cyclopes..... [with] no laws nor assemblies of the people, but live in caves on the tops of high mountains; each is lord and master in his family, and they take no account of their neighbors.</em>" His men pleaded with him to raid the cyclops' cave for food and other necessities and leave while he's not inside. But Odysseus decided to meet the creature in person so he waited for the Cyclops to arrive. As the story progressed, this encounter did not go well which will lead to the death of most of his men. This shows just how curiosity can be a dangerous thing.

because as we all know, the caveman ended up being a cyclops, his men were begging to get away from a potentially bad situation, yet Odysseus was more interested in seeing the caveman he knows the advice to get on the ship and leave is great advice yet his curiosity has gotten the best of him.

Can man or adjust Mars environment to make it more suitable for human habitation?How?​
andrey2020 [161]
Answer:
Reduce the amount of CO2 in the air. ...
Increase the planetary temperature. ...
Make the planet breathable. ...
Construct plants for generating super-greenhouse gases made of complex combinations of carbon,chlorine and flourine. To successfully make Mars Earth-like, we would need to raise temperatures, have water stably remain in liquid form and thicken the atmosphere. ... The only greenhouse gas on the Red Planet that's abundant enough to provide significant warming is carbon dioxide (CO2), they noted. Man cannot alter the environment in Mars to make it more suitable for human habitation. It is virtually and logistically impossible to do so for various reasons. For this to work, you need massive changes in the environment which is not possible with what we have today. Transforming Mars into a life-friendly world doesn't have to be a herculean planet-wide effort. Humanity could make patches of the Red Planet habitable relatively cheaply and efficiently by placing thin layers of silica aerogel on or above the Martian surface, a new study suggests. Proponents of terraforming Mars propose releasing gases from a variety of sources on the Red Planet to thicken the atmosphere and increase the temperature to the point where liquid water is stable on the surface. These gases are called “greenhouse gases” for their ability to trap heat and warm the climate. Scientists have considered placing Mylar disks, with a diameter of 155 miles and a weight of 200,000 tons, to reflect sunlight onto Mars and heat the surface. The idea is that over many years, the rise in temperature would release greenhouse gasses.
