Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Explain why Bud says that "It's funny how ideas are, in a lot of ways they're just like seeds. Both of them start real small and then ... Woop, zoop, sloop ... Before you can say Jack Robinson they've gone and grown a lot bigger than you ever thought they could"
Answer:
Bud says this to show how a small and insignificant idea became something big inside him, becoming his biggest goal.
Explanation:
Bud explains that the idea of looking for and finding his father was insignificant, small in his subconscious and that he could go unnoticed by other more important and impacting ideas, however, over time, that idea grew and grew until he became the biggest goal of his life. To better explain it to the reader, he makes reference to how a seed so small can become such a large and imposing tree. The seed symbolizes the idea and the tree symbolizes the goal.

Answer:
Odysseus made it sound as if "nobody" stabbed Polyphemus in the eye, so the other cyclops let him go. The curse that is revealed a the end of his encounter with the Cyclops foreshadows Odysseus's difficult journey.
Explanation:
The clever word play:
Odysseus tries to outsmart and taunt the Cyclops at every turn, first by getting him drunk on wine and then by telling the Cyclops that his name is Outis, which means nobody. This is so that when the Cyclops is telling the other giants who injured him, it sounds like Polyphemus is shouting "Nobody" stabbed him in the eye. This confuses the other Cyclops who may have otherwise tried to help Polyphemus catch Odysseus.
The Curse:
Odysseus and his men sail away from the island by tricking the now blinded Cyclops that they were part of the herd of sheep that Polyphemus was tending. The curse comes when Odysseus decides to try to taunt the monster further and shouts out his real name. What this does is reveal his identity and allows the Cyclops to curse Odysseus in revenge. Polyphemus prays to his father, the great Poseidon, asking that Odysseus's journey back home to Ithaca be fraught with the loss of his friends and his ship.
The main idea of the biography is that Dorothy deserves credit as a pioneer for her accomplishments at NASA. The sentence that confirms this is:
“…Vaughan was both a respected mathematician and NASA's first African-American manager.”
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Dorothy Vaughan's biography wants to show why she was a scientist and someone so important to American society.
- In addition to having contributed a lot to the work of NASA, Vaughan was a pioneer in that institution.
- That's because, NASA was an institution dominated by white people, who had more access to higher education and administrative positions.
- However, Dorothy Vaughan became the first African-American manager that NASA had, in addition to being one of the first women to occupy this position, which makes her a pioneer.
As the central idea of a text is the main subject that the text intends to address, we can affirm that Dorothy Vaughan's pioneering spirit is the central idea of her biography.
