Answer:

Being blind.

Explanation:

Participial phrase is a group of words consisting of a participle (present or past participle) which acts as a main word, and a modifier ( present participle ends  on -ing, while past participle has different suffixes which depends on the verb is regular or irregular). Whatever participle it may be, these phrases always act as an adjective in a sentence, modifying nouns. Knowing this, the only possible answer is being blind; other answers don't contain present or past participle. Also, this phrase modifies the word street, which is a noun, so it functions as an adjective.

The temperature danger zone is:? 41 degrees to 140 degrees 41 degrees to 130 degrees 41 degrees to 135 degrees 10 degrees to 32
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

41 degrees to 140 degrees.

Explanation:

The danger zone in food safety terms refers to the temperatures within which food should not be kept or else it will probably become contaminated. Bacteria can easily develop in food if it's kept within the temperatures between 41 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit for more than two hours. In such cases, food should be thrown away. This is the reason why fridges should be set at a temperature of under 4 degrees Celsius anyway to prevent food from going bad.

No! Living there would be a nightmare for me, I'm what you would call "mixed." In the book you're reading the towns folk believe in segregation and punish those unjustly because of the color of their skin. It's also a very poor part of Alabama based on the description so schools would be awful, neighborhoods might be riddled with crime, and community resources would be very limited or non-existent (community centers, parks, hospitals, etc). 

As for the second half, it was absolutely cruel. The parents should have kept a better eye on their children and reprimanded them for being so inconsiderate. They should have also educated them on letting other people just be since we're all different, with our own challenges.
