Answer:

А. Insects and seeds travel on birds that migrate or flee from storms.

Explanation:

The scientific article "Against All Odds: Earth's Fragile Pioneers" was written by Stephen James O'Meara for the Odyssey Magazine. In this article, O'Meara details the three specific ways life began on the island of Hawaii.

O'Meara reveals how birds, vegetation, insects, and all things now found in Hawaii have been. Though isolated and far from the other landmass, Hawaii began to have a life of its own, despite being <em>"in the heart of the North Pacific."</em> This can be attributed to birds, wind, and water. And in paragraph 4, he talks about how birds play a vital role in bringing about this life, either intentionally or not. According to O'Meara, insects, and seeds <em>"hitch[ed] a ride on a migrating or storm-driven bird" </em>and were dropped there on the island, which propagated and thus, helped in growing the life forms in the island.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Romeo and juliet act 4 test
Damm [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

He will do this ritual every night for ever because of his love for Juliet. In the line, “Or, wanting that, with tears …,” the word “wanting” is used in the sense that “that” something is not there, but should be: if the “that” is not there, then the situation is “wanting” it. It’s an old-fashioned use of the word “want.” Nowadays, we don’t generally think of mere situations as being able to want anything. Another example of this is, “The boy gives me warning something doth approach. What cursed foot wanders this way tonight.”

This suggests that Paris does not want to be seen by Juliet’s grave because he is ashamed to have someone see him like this. The way the language is used portrays that he is nervous and in a hurry. He questions why anyone would be out this late at night. The word “Doth” is used by Shakespeare because it was relevant during the Elizabethan reign. “Doth” means “Do” in old English. Continuing his questioning, Paris says, “To cross my obsequies and true love’s rite? What with a torch! Muffle me, night, awhile.”

This implies that Paris is angry that someone has interrupted his “Obsequies” and “True love’s rite” because he wanted to be alone to grieve. He seems surprised that the person has brought a torch as he thought they would be more discreet. He sees that they would be able to spot him so he hurries away, hiding in the darkness for a while. The word “Muffle” suggests that Paris wants to be enveloped in the darkness. The effect on the audience is it creates tension.

The audience is eager to find out what happens to Romeo and what Paris will do to defend Juliet. After Paris watches Romeo for a while he declares, ”And here is come to do some villainous shame to the dead bodies. I will apprehend him.” This suggests that Paris supposes that Romeo means to continue the feud with the Capulets. Paris believes that Romeo has come to commit an awful crime against the dead bodies of the Capulets.

This would intensify the feud as the Capulets would assume that the Montagues did the crime therefore, creating conflict. To stop this Paris decides to catch Romeo. The word “Apprehend” shows that Paris is certain the Romeo is going to commit a crime. Apprehending someone is to arrest them
