Essay about veterinary doctor??

lozanna [386]

Answer:

A veterinarian or a vet, is someone who gives animals Veterinary medicine or medical treatment. They are doctors for animals. There are many different types of veterinarians; some work with small animals, large farm animals, or wild animals. Veterinarians learn to treat all animals, but sometimes work with a specific type. Other veterinarians specialise in a particular type of medicine - for example, veterinary dermatologists work with animals with skin problems. Finally, some veterinarians do research on animal or human diseases.

To become a vet in North America, you must go to college for at least 2 or 3 years, and take several required classes, including many science classes. You then apply to veterinary school. If you are accepted, you are in veterinary school for 4 years, and then graduate with the degree Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. In the United States and Canada, you have to pass a test (called the NAVLE or North American Veterinary Licensing Exam) before you can practice as a veterinarian. In other countries such as Australia, veterinary schools are 5 years long and take students that have finished high school. In iraq, veterinary schools are 5 years long and take students that have finished high schools.

3. Which is not a way that the film version of "The Most Dangerous Game" creates suspense?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

A. the time in which the film is set

Explanation:

Like the book, the movie version of "The Most Dangerous Game" features the story of a famous hunter who was forced to participate in a hunt where he was the hunt. The story is full of suspense elements that are reinforced in the cinematographic version with the use of dramatic music and visual chase details, where the viewer feels all the anxiety of the hunt. The addition of human life to the hunt is already an element that increases the suspense intensely, as it leaves the viewer apprehensive about how the game will end. The timing of the film, however, does not add to the suspense and is just one element of the setting.
