Select the correct answer. If the writer wanted to provide more information about the process of how leaves take in nutrients an

d energy, which graphic would be best to add to the passage? A. a map of the world showing where leaves tend to change colors the most B. a diagram showing the process by which photosynthesis takes place C. a chart listing the names of scientists who discovered how photosynthesis works D. a painting of trees in a forest to highlight the beauty of fall-colored leaves
The text:The following is a student draft. It may contain errors. Why Do Leaves Change Color in the Fall? The Splendor of Fall Leaves (1) As the days get cooler, trees and shrubs put on an impressive fashion show in all the shades of red, yellow, purple, and browns. (2) Leaves that were once green all summer long start to change colors and fall becomes the time when trees show off these vibrant colored leaves. (3) Leaves are more than just a fashion statement. (4) Leaves are nature's food factories. (5) Plants take water from the ground through their roots. (6) They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. (7) Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose, which is a kind of sugar. (8) Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growth. (9) The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is a called photosynthesis. (10) This process means to "put together with light." (11) A chemical called chlorophyll helps make photosynthesis happen. (12) And, chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color. Where do Autumn Colors Come From? (13) Some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. (14) There are various pigments of colors, including yellow pigments known as xanthophylls and the orange pigments called carotenoids. (15) Red and purple pigments come from anthocyanins, which are manufactured from the sugars that are trapped in the leaf. (16) These fall colors are actually always present in the leaves throughout the growing season, but only show up in the fall. (17) When all the color pigments are gone during extreme weather conditions, the only pigment that remains are tannins, which are brown. What Makes Leave Change Color? (18) Trees are sensitive to these changes in their environment, so as the season begins to change, the trees "know" to start getting ready for winter. (19) Leaves are green in the spring and summer because that is when they are making the most amounts of chlorophyll. (20) But, as summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. (21) As a result, the trees will rest and live off the food they stored during the warmer months. (22) They begin to shut down their food-making factories and the bright green fades away from the leaves, revealing the reds, oranges, and yellows.

B

Well if you think about it photosynthesis shows how the plants evolves so if you were to use a diagram that would support the fact that leaves take in nutrients and energy.

Foster suggests that there is a "language of reading" made up of a "set of conventions, patterns,codes, and rules that we learn
Triss [41]

Answer:

"Same way you get to Carnegie Hall. Practice."

Explanation:

For Foster, the language of reading is an essential skill for any student, as it allows them to have a high level of learning, in addition to having a full understanding of texts, contexts, training, concepts and other forms of language, textuality and communication. However, he affirms that this is not an easy skill to obtain, due to its complexity, but it is not impossible to reach it, just as it is not impossible to reach Carnegie Hall, as long as the student practices countless times and encourages this knowledge and skill, until he or she reaches a satisfactory level of understanding.

Which line in this poem indicates that the poetic speaker is hopelessly in love?
Rzqust [24]

The correct answer is option letter E (He burnt un’wares his wings, and cannot fly away). Taken from the sonnet sequence “<em>Astrophel and Stella</em>” by Philip Sidney (1591), Sonnet 8 narrates the moment when Cupid travelled to England from his native home in Greece, since Greece has fallen under control of the Ottoman Empire. Cupid felt cold in this new territory and as soon as he saw <u>Stella's brilliant face</u>, he thought it was a source of heat, but it was not. Instead, her face was like “<em>like morning sun on snow</em>”, that is, it was bright but cold. The best line in the poem that describes the poetic speaker hopelessly in love is the one in letter E, since this option describes <u>how Cupid's wings were burnt by the flames of Astrophel's desire for Stella</u>. This event leaves Astrophel hopeless and uncertain of Stella’s capacity of loving, after Cupid's best efforts to live in her face.
