The correct answer is C. A pattern of accented and unaccented syllables

Explanation:

"Metrical foot" is a term mainly used in poetry to describe the structure of verses mainly based on the number of syllables and whether these are long syllables (accented syllables) or short syllables (unaccented syllables). In this way, the combination of patterns unaccented and accented syllables lead to different metrical feet that give poems different types of rhythms. In the case of the English poetry, for example, one of the most common patterns is the Iambic pentameter in which verses are composed by five iambs and each iamb is a combination of an unaccented syllable and one accented syllable. Therefore, a metical foot is "a pattern of accented and unaccented syllables".

jekas [21]

Answer:

If people go to the tiger habitat they are no longer afraid of tigers. And if people go to the tigers' habitat then the tiger won't attack someone facing them.

Explanation:

Technically this passage would be invalid because it is not logical. It also could be put in the form of a syllogism to make it easier to understand. If you would like to know how to do that, I would be glad to show you!

Hope this helps!!

Which of these are effective steps to take before drafting a short story? Select all that apply. Write a sketch of each characte
Inessa05 [86]

The effective steps you can take before drafting a short story are as follows: 1) Visualize the story from beginning to end as this will give you a brainstorm of ideas to include in the following steps; 2) create a plot outline because you will need to specify what the focus or main idea of the story will be. Once you have done these two, now you can begin to 3) write a sketch of each character based on the plot of the story to depict or give life to the personality of every person in the play; also because this step will lead you to 4) write out the dialogue to determine how the plot will develop and move along the characters of the story until the very end, which comes to be the last effective step in this process of writing a short story by 4) writing the ending since you must have clear how things will conclude for everybody. Finally, it is not as important to determine the title of the story since you may find fewer ideas for it whether you start from this step or consider it relevant; in fact, making the story from scratch and having a sketch of it can bring a vast list of names for the whole story that sums it up, so keep this step but for the last.
