B.) 24 Horse and 50 Humans

All have one head each 24+50 = 74

Horses have 4 legs so 24*4= 96

Humans have 2 so 50*2= 100

Total legs: 196

Total heads: 74

Define principal quantum number and explain with relevant example?​
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The principal quantum number is the quantum number denoted by n and which indirectly describes the size of the electron orbital. It is always assigned an integer value (e.g., n = 1, 2, 3...), but its value may never be 0. An orbital for which n = 2 is larger, for example, than an orbital for which n = 1.

Why does the narrator compare the dirty pair of socks to a "sad little salted<br>slug"?​
PIT_PIT [208]

<u>Reason for comparing the dirty pair of socks to a "sad little salted </u>

<u>slug":</u>

A slug is a small but slimy creature that gets dehydrated when enough salt is poured upon it. It loses water, shrivels up looking dirty and eventually dies.  Apparently, a salted slug is not a happy creature as it is sure to die as soon as it loses all its water. Thus, it is a ‘sad little salted slug’.

The narrator in the three minute fiction ‘Not That I Care’ describes one of the pair of socks left by a character Marcus making use of simile, a literary device of comparison. The comparison is made between common characteristics of the two things compared.

Out of the two socks forming one pair, one lies in front, easily visible, dirty and all curled up while the other one is hiding under the bed.

The comparison implies that it was mucky and repelling like a salted slug.  It was lying unattended like a salted slug devoid of vitality. Simply thrown away carelessly in the house, it seemed sad too. The narrator had no intention of touching it, so the chances of its revival were bleak.

Read the sentence.
Archy [21]

Answer:

Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs. At the same time, she was meek with the humans at camp.

Explanation:

<em>White Fang</em> is a novel written by Jack London. It tells about White Fang, a wild wolfdog, and his journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush.

What we need to determine here is which option provides us with a detail that supports the given statement. The correct option is the first one. The fact that Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs proves that she is protective. The fact that she was meek with the humans at the camp shows her more gentle, submissive side, which could come from her caution.

The rest of the options are either irrelevant or show only one side, which makes them incorrect.
