These are antonyms!!
Resistant means that something can't affect it (the resistant object), or has a hard time affecting it. For example, water resistant shoes aren't easily affected by water; water cant pass through them as easily as non-water resistant shoes.
Yielding means that something is flexible or is influenced by another thing easily. For example, when you "yield" when driving, you are letting the other cars go before you; or, when an object "yields" to pressure, it is bending under pressure (though not quite breaking).
In summary: resistant means nothing can touch it, while yielding means that things easily affect it; thus, antonyms.
The definition of a good descriptive paragraph is a paragraph that appeals to the five senses: sight, sound, touch, smell, and hearing. It lets the reader into the author's world and allows them to experience the fun the author is having writing the article.

Explanation:
The central idea of a text, and that includes information texts as well, is the main point the author is trying to convey, that is, the information he wants people to understand and remember. To support that main idea, to make it understandable, or even to prove it right, the author must use examples, evidence, details, and analysis.
Therefore, options A, C, and D consist of support to the central idea, while option B defines it.
Answer:he tries to sleep it off.
Explanation: As these opening lines from Kafka´s novella, Metamorphosis, show, the transformation of Gregor Samsa into some sort of vermin is not a dream and in fact it´s a quite literally real experience. However, Samsa is uncomfortable but not quite panicking, and, given the situation, it is quite surprising that his reaction is merely to try to sleep it off, but, alas, he can´t even manage to do this since his new bodily form is too uncomfortable to sleep on his side, like he used to do.
