The poem is about the skeletons who perform dance macabre at night. When their shrouds are opened in the graveyard, warder picks up one of them and skeleton does not return to the grave. It starts chasing the warder to the bell tower. Skeleton tries to kill the warder and at this moment god saves him when the skeleton breaks down into pieces. The story of the poem allegorically describes why it is not recommended to interfere with the supernatural activities.

In Totentanz,
"the skeleton corners the unfortunate Türmer, who quivers in cowardice, and is about to deliver a deathly blow when providence saves the Türmer just in time". The poem is about the skeletons of men and women who have died dance in the middle of the night. When their shrouds fall across the graveyard, the warder picks one up. When the dead try to go back into their tombs, the one whose shroud was taken stays awake. He seeks out the warder and seeks the warder's death unless he returns it.

A kitten is born with one blue eye and one yellow eye. What is the genetic term for this situation and what does it mean?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: Heterochromia

Explanation:

Heterochromia is an anomaly that people and some animals may have where the irises are of different colors. On several occasions, heterochromia can affect the hair or skin, but it is more common to see people with this abnormality in the eyes.

It is normal to see some animals with this condition, especially cats. The fact that a cat has heterochromia does not mean that its life is going to be in danger, nor does it hinder its ability to see. The animal may develop this anomaly due to some disease that has suffered in its ocular or congenital area. No matter the breed of the cat, anyone has the possibility of having heterochromia.
