Lines 2-12. King is addressing clergymen, an important group especially to him because he has so many other ties and does a lot of work for other religious organizations trying to help people. One of their complaints is that what he is doing is "unwise and untimely".

Lines 17-43: King is in Birmingham because of moral reasons, as he supports with this statement: "<span>I am in Birmingham because injustice is here." He believes injustice is happening and that he can help fix it, which relates to his morality. 

Lines 17-43: King uses religious allusions because he is sending this letter to clergymen, who are religious people. This is his direct appeal to his specific audience. And example of religious appeal is when he says "</span><span>Just as the prophets of the eighth century B.C. left their villages and carried their "thus saith the Lord" far beyond the boundaries of their home towns...so am I compelled to carry the gospel of freedom beyond my own home town." This is a specific example from the Bible that he is comparing himself to. </span>

Which adaptation would be most beneficial to mammals of both the taiga and marine aquatic biomes?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

A. A thick layer of fat for insulation

Explanation:

Taiga is one of the world's coldest biomes. It includes the Canadian and Alaskan regions. Both taiga and marine mammals have adaptations that make it easier for them to survive in the harsh winter conditions. The mammals will be protected from the harsh winter environment and cold water by a thick layer of insulation. It will aid in the maintenance of homeostasis in mammals.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?
