Fluoride is a mineral that is added to public drinking water supplies in much of the United States in order to reduce levels of

tooth decay. When a tooth is forming, fluoride strengthens the enamel, or outside coating of the teeth. The fluoride mixes with the enamel, making it harder. In addition, when fluoride mixes with saliva, it can protect teeth from sugars, further reducing tooth decay. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that drinking fluoridated water provides additional protection even for people who simply brush with fluoride toothpaste. Reports on the impacts of fluoridated drinking water have concluded that it reduces tooth decay by about twenty-five percent.
The text structure used in the above paragraph is:

A)Sequence
B)Compare and Contrast

Answer:

Cause and effect

Explanation:

You can rule out sequence since it's not really telling a story

It's not Compare and Contrast because it's not stressing the importance of water with fluoride or without fluoride in the water

It's not Problem and Solution because water without Fluoride was not an issue, simply a precaution.

Leaving C) as our answer, this shows the effects of Fluoride in our drinking water and how it affects the population.

Hope this helps!

Maslowich

Answer:

1. If  <em>I had not hurt my ankle,</em> I wouldn't have stopped running.

2. If only my friends  <em>liked to play</em> team sports.

3. <em>I wish I hadn't bought</em> a car.

4. If <em>only I hadn't dropped</em> my fishing rod in the river.

5. James wishes <em>he could take part</em> in the competition.

Explanatio​n:

<u>The subjunctive mood is used to talk about imaginary or impossible situations, and to express regret.</u> Sentence one makes use of Third Conditional, which is formed with the Past Perfect and would have + past participle. Finally, <em>I wish</em> and <em>if only</em> are used with the Past Simple to refer to an unlikely situation in the present, while the Past Perfect indicates regret over something that has already occurred.

Smells, sight, sounds, tastes, feel, and what you'd hear would count so:

the taste of the food (bland, delicious, yummy
the steam off the plate (if the food was warm)
smell of the food
beeping of an oven
feel of the hot plate
warmth from the oven
if there is tv and/or music in the background
maybe sounds from a sibling and/ or pet in the background
temperature in the house
how did the food look (bright, dull, colorful)
the sound of a microwave timer

these would all count as the sensory details of a dinner
