Slav-nsk [51]3 years ago
8 0

The statement which best supports the idea that a longer Achilles tendon might lead a person to have greater high-jumping abilities is that kangaroos have longer tendons that lead them to bouncing instead of walking (a).

Not only do the other statements (b and c) go against this claim, but the first one directly expresses a causation. Indeed, through the use of the verb <em>lead to</em>, this sentence affirms that the fact that kangaroos have longer tendons than other bipeds is the reason why they are able to jump instead of simply walking.

How does Caesar's description of himself support or conflict with his past behaviors with other characters?
Sever21 [200]
Julius Caesar -  A great Roman general and senator, recently returned to Rome in triumph after a successful military campaign. While his good friend Brutus worries that Caesar may aspire to dictatorship over the Roman republic, Caesar seems to show no such inclination, declining the crown several times. Yet while Caesar may not be unduly power-hungry, he does possess his share of flaws. He is unable to separate his public life from his private life, and, seduced by the populace’s increasing idealization and idolization of his image, he ignores ill omens and threats against his life, believing himself as eternal as the North Star.
