Answer:

1. Australia, except in the northernmost areas.

2. Rabbits were first introduced to Australia by the First Fleet in 1788. They were bred as food animals, probably in cages. ... However, by 1827 in Tasmania, a newspaper article noted "...the common rabbit is becoming so numerous throughout the colony, that they are running about on some large estates by thousands.

3. Rabbits were introduced to Australia in the 1800s by European settlers. Free from diseases and facing relatively few predators in a modified environment, the wild populations grew rapidly.

4. Competition and land degradation by rabbits is listed as a key threatening process in Australia. Rabbits can cause damage by overgrazing native and sown pastures, leading to loss of plant biodiversity and reduced crop yields.

5. Rabbits are not native to Australia and affect primary production and native ecosystems.

Their impact on primary industries includes:

Lost production (crops, pastures, and revegetation, horticultural or forestry seedlings),

Control costs, and

Soil erosion, and associated impacts on infrastructure and waters.

Their impact on native ecosystems includes:

Competition for food and shelter,

Selective grazing of preferred plant species, resulting in low or nil recruitment and subsequent ecological change,

Maintaining fox and feral cat populations, resulting in increased predation of native animals and contributing to the extinction of some species,

Soil erosion, and associated impacts on vegetation, wetlands and watercourses, and

Off-target harm from rabbit control measures such as baiting and fumigation.

6.Conventional and biological controls have been used in Australia to eradicate rabbits. Conventional controls include destroying rabbit burrows with poison and fire. "Using poison, deep ploughing and then fuming burrows was highly cost effective [in] reducing rabbit numbers," says Mutze.

4. When you tell the most important part of a text, you are identifying

B. the central idea

About 1.5 million species of fungi exist on Earth. They act as nature’s decomposers, breaking down matter, releasing enzymes and acids that unlock nutrients for plants and soil organisms. You may be familiar with macrofungi, a type of fungus that includes mushrooms. But for the most part, fungi exist as mycelia, tiny threads that snake underground in billions of interconnected threads. They twist and twine with tree root systems, bringing them crucial nutrients. Mycologists call these networks of mycelia "Earth’s nervous system."

Which statement best identifies the central idea of the paragraph?

D. The over a million different types of fungi surrounding us act as Earth's decomposers.

What are your thoughts about poetry’s connection to sports? Explain.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Poets are word athletes, and the poems they make are word performances. Good poems are not static but dynamic—they dramatize the motions of life. For instance, we admire a “good move” in a game or in a poem. Larry Bird suddenly fakes out a defender, leaps in the air and lifts the ball off his fingertips toward the basket — swish. And a poem, near its end, suddenly “turns” and concludes with a powerful flourish. We appreciate both poet and athlete because we have witnessed a moment of grace.

Because poetry is so gestural arid physical, it is difficult to analyze. We can like or dislike a poem long before we “understand” it; this is because our response is only partly a matter of conscious thought. The great poet/scholar A.E. Housman illustrated this truth when he wrote:

Watch children listening to nursery rimes. They don’t listen passively; they listen physically as the lines are chanted. They respond not merely with their minds but with their bodies, and that is exactly the response these body poems are intended to elicit.

A poem is nothing if not physical. Stanley Burnshaw in his book The Seamless Web writes:

But words are also biology. Except for a handful of poets and scholars, nobody has taken time to consider the feeling of verbal sounds in the physical organism. Even today—despite all the public reciting of verse, the recordings, the classroom markings of prosody—the muscular sensation of words is virtually ignored by all but poets who know how much the body is engaged by a poem. (206)

“Poetry in motion” is a cliche often used to describe an athlete performing. The phrase aptly illustrates the fact that sports or any kind of graceful movement can be appropriate subject matter for poetry. In other words, sports have a built-in fluidity and encantatory quality that we naturally associate with poetry, and vice versa. (When I use the word “sports” in “sports poems,” I include, along with the usual definition of “games with rules,” the looser senses such as “an active pastime or recreation” and “to play and frolic.” If a poem works on the basis of some physical action—if that is what it is “about”—then it qualifies as a sports or body poem.)

The mature athlete in motion, like a good poem in motion, is (another cliche) a thing of beauty. We appreciate the lively precision of a dive by Greg Louganis or a vault by Mary Lou Retton. The performance becomes memorable in the same way that a poem’s lines stay with us long after we have heard them read or have read them ourselves. Seeing a perfect dive or vault over and over on instant replay is equivalent to repeating aloud the lines of a great poem.

Which question does the adverb clause answer?

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Short answer: You are answering why?

Why doesn't she want to go out? She doesn't want to go out because she's in a very bad mood. She knows that she won't be good company.

Remark
The sentence after the ; (semicolon) does not begin with any kind of connective word. If you put a noun in place of she, you would see that the last part after the semicolon is a complete sentence.
