Adjectives are words that describe other words. They often give details about how something feels or looks. They can also give details about where something comes from (the origin of the thing) or how long something lasts or the length of something.
In the sentence "The American had long standing love for African birds", long and African are adjectives because they are describing other words, specifically the nouns in the sentence.
Long describes the length of the American's love. African describes the origin of the birds since they are from Africa. The other words in the sentence are not adjectives.
Answer:
Explanation:
More than 99 percent of all organisms that have ever lived on Earth are extinct. As new species evolve to fit ever changing ecological niches, older species fade away. But the rate of extinction is far from constant. At least a handful of times in the last 500 million years, 75 to more than 90 percent of all species on Earth have disappeared in a geological blink of an eye in catastrophes we call mass extinctions.
Though mass extinctions are deadly events, they open up the planet for new forms of life to emerge. The most studied mass extinction, which marked the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleogene periods about 66 million years ago, killed off the nonavian dinosaurs and made room for mammals and birds to rapidly diversify and evolve.
Answer:
Less CO2 and H2O would be produced
Explanation:
Since you can only change the amount of reactants, you should be looking for compounds on the reactant side that contain oxygen. If you decrease something on the reactant side, compounds produced on the product side will be affected. Since both CO2 and H2O contain oxygen, and the O2 is the only reactant with oxygen in it, then the amount of CO2 and H2O will be reduced.
Answer:
If you always try your best
then you'll never have to wonder
About what you could have done
If you'd summoned all your thunder
And if all your best
Was not
As you hoped it would be
You still could say
I gave all today
All that I had in me

In my opinion, from this excerpt, the only thing that can be seen is "suffering". He had absolutely nothing in his youngest years, he was as poor as a church mouse, but not only that, he apparently had nobody to be there for him. To me it shows a great deal of pain and sadness, and that is evident in this paragraph.
