Answer:
Hello, you didn't say what the task is, but I assume we have to choose the option that best describes the composition and the format of the excerpt from Douglas A Segar's <em>Introduction to the Ocean Sciences</em>. If so, I would choose D.
Explanation:
I chose D because the excerpt begins with the argument and continues with the conclusion, that is that "<em>terrestrial organisms are relatively easy to study</em>". Then, the study of terrestrial organisms are compared with the study of ocean life, that is not so easy due to its nature of being present "<em>throughout the depth of the ocean waters, and for several meters, or more, into the sediment.</em>" and it is not as easy to reach as the first one.
The participle is; trainer. The participle phrase is; armed with a whip, entered the cage.
A would be the best answer since humans throughout history have desired, experienceed, and feared many of the same things. (i.e. love, death, loss, hope, redemption, ect.)
Number three is hopelessness
Um, I would say they might be shocked because back then they didn't have anything like Rock Concerts and they didn't really like anything different, surprising, or weird. That's why when they could not understand why someone cooked different they thought it was witch craft and thought that person was a witch and burned them alive or hung them.
