What idea does the author suggest the American people have a "high opinion" of? Having sufficient power The intelligence of othe
Doss [256]

Answer:

Unity under one government

Explanation:

Having a high opinion can mean that you see the value of something or somebody. <em>Having sufficient power</em> and <em>their own specific interests </em>are restricted to the 1st person singular or plural in a <em>selfish </em>manner. <em>The intelligence of other countries</em> is not something that crosses your mind when you think of your country. <em>The unity under one government </em>is what the history of the United States of America (the independence) has taught American people to appreciate, nourish and value.

Alfred Wegeners theory of continental drift was not widely accepted by the scientific community. Describe the weakness in his th
Elden [556K]

The main weakness was that Wegener could not explain how the continents could plow through the seafloor, another problem he had was that he couldn't find the mechanism that caused the continents to move across the surface. So scientists rejected his hypothesis.



The theory of plate tectonics took evidence from the seafloor that allowed the plates to move across the earth's surface. Scientists noticed a long chain of volcanic mountains in the middle of the Atlantic ocean and alternating parallel bands of rock with magnetic crystals of differing polarity. Scientists were able to deduce that new oceanic crust was being produced at the mid-ocean ridges (those volcanic mountain ranges in the middle of oceans) and that magnetite crystals in those rocks produced there were aligning themselves to the earth's magnetic field at the time. And because of this they were able to deduce that the new rock was pushing the older rock away from the mid-ocean ridge, in turn moving the continents beyond the older seafloor


There is a mantle plume in the middle of the Pacific Ocean where magma from deep within the earth's surface reaches the earth's surface. This forms a volcano there. As the Pacific plate moves across the mantle plume, new volcanoes form as old ones die because it is away from the heat source. These volcanoes erode away, and as they do so the islands formed by them slowly shrink until they are completely beneath the waves .

Consider the word metamorphosis and evaluate it in terms of Gregor, his parents, and his sister as characters who develop differ
NARA [144]

Answer:

Gregor

Even though Gregor is the only character to undergo a physical transformation, he experiences perhaps the least emotional growth of all the characters. That’s not to say he doesn’t evolve, though. He changes somewhat when he starts putting his own wants and desires over those of his family. He basks in the joy of freedom and escape from responsibility, and he spends hours hanging from the ceiling enjoying himself. He even learns to stand up for himself. At one point, he attempts to defend his belongings when Grete tries to get rid of them. He also tries to obtain human pleasure by listening to his sister play the violin. However, his story has a sad ending. He seems to return to his self-sacrificing ways by dying so that he will no longer be a burden to his family, leaving them free to prosper.

Mr. Samsa

Gregor’s metamorphosis brings about a metamorphosis in his parents, especially his father. Prior to Gregor’s change, his father was a decrepit old man who never got dressed and who could hardly walk. However, after Gregor’s transformation, his father is overcome with newfound confidence. He gets a job as a bank messenger and never takes off his new blue uniform. Gregor’s death strengthens his father further, empowering him to stand up to the lodgers and the charwoman.

Mrs. Samsa

Mrs. Samsa is sympathetic to Gregor during his crisis, although she seems unable to relate to him or even tolerate his presence. She displays both nervous and sentimental behavior while Gregor is alive. For example, she faints upon seeing him but tries to prevent her husband from killing him. His death seems to loosen her up, and she accompanies her husband and daughter on their family vacation. She even manages to get a job for herself as a seamstress in an underwear company.

Grete  

Grete undergoes significant change over the course of the story. She starts off taking care of and protecting Gregor when he’s transformed into an insect. Later, she grows tired of him and begins to resent him. She starts neglecting him and encourages the family to get rid of him. Gregor’s transformation and death has a liberating effect on her. All her life, she had been dependent on him for everything. However, after he changes, she becomes more independent and starts taking on more responsibility. She gets a job as a salesgirl and starts learning shorthand and French to improve her future prospects. The story ends on a promising note for Grete, who can now look forward to getting married and starting a new life.
