English

Answer:

A legend is a semi-true story, which has been passed on from person-to-person and has important meaning or symbolism for the culture in which it originates and is based on historic facts.A myth however is a story based on tradition , which has a deep symbolic meaning. A myth 'conveys a truth' to those who tell it and hear it, rather than necessarily recording a true event. They are often used to explain how something came about.

The way to tell the difference would be looking for fact and exaggeration. If you see these its most likely a legend. If there is a lot of symbolism or trying to explain the origins of something, it is most likely a myth.

Which of the following should be included in your research presentation? SELECT ALL THAT APPLY
vfiekz [6]
 broad topic isn't exactly what you want in a presentation, you usually want to have a very narrowed topic, focusing on something specific. 
Detains and examples are very important, so check that. You always need multiple sources. 
A cited list is also very important, because it's technically illegal to not have one if you used any info from somewhere else besides your own brain.
D isn't important at all
E could be important for the working progress phase, but for the presentation itself, it's not really needed.

alexdok [17]

According to this excerpt, the reason why women were denied the right to vote in the early 1800 is because “society believed they were not competent enough to understand certain issues”. Evidence can be found in the excerpt that supports this answer “Women were considered ill-suited to decide upon matters of politics”.  

The text does not make reference to the number of women that would vote. Besides, the text does not indicate that women were not qualified to run a public office. And finally, the text does not show that women would not follow their domestic responsibilities if they voted.  

Therefore, the correct answer is B).
