Answer:

To ask for a gift, such as rain, from nature.

Explanation:

The song "Twelfth Song of Thunder" is a Navajo song celebrating the sky, the land, and everything about the earth. It is also chanted during the Navajo Mountain Chant ceremony/ ritual.

This chant/ song is sung as a prayer to please the gods and ask for their blessings. It asks for a gift of nature, more specifically the rains which they require for their plants. For them, nature and depending on the divine was everything, with their livelihood depending on the providence of the gods.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The author most likely includes this supporting text to <em><u>reinforce the case study's point that bird flu is dangerous</u></em>.

Compare the words “director” and “shatter”. How are they alike? How are they different?...
nikklg [1K]
They’re similar since they end in -ter and -tor, which generally sound similar, but they’re different as “director” is a noun meaning a person who directs something, while “shatter” is a verb meaning to break something into tiny pieces (you can shatter a window, a glass, a plate, etc).
