Answer:
1. This is an expository article. This can be seen through the author's attempt to provide evidence to readers based on scientific and confirmed analyzes, where he literally exposes the topic in question, explaining it impartially and informing the reader.
2. The central idea is to expose the certainty that some Puritans have that they still exist and are influential in America, being part of American society.
3. To justify this perception of the Puritans, Hudson shows how the Puritans justify that many cultural points and customs present in America today are based on Puritan habits.
4. To explain a specific idea about Puritans believing they are still influential today, Hutson shows that many ideas from influential Puritans like Martin Luther and John Calvin are currently being encouraged, to confirm this, he shows that research has already been done with students from two universities that prove that the concepts of these two men are still taken seriously within society. I do not fully agree with Hutson's view because the research he cites in the article only represents a very small part of the population, which is not enough to represent American society.

Answer:
a. Where did the grass and plants come from?
b. Why do turtles have strange markings on their shells?
e. How was the Earth created?
Explanation:
"The Earth On Turtle's Back" by Michael J. Caduto and Joseph Bruchac tells the myth or how the Native Americans believe to be the origin of life and the whole earth. It tells the story of how things began, how some phenomenons came about, and what led to the creation of the earth that we're living on now.
In the myth, the Onondaga people believe that the earth was formed as a result of the fall of the Ancient Chief's wife from Skyland. In their attempt to keep her safe, the animals tried hard to find land for the pregnant woman. In her fall, she had some seeds from the tree she was leaning on, and when the earth was made on the turtle's back, the seeds were put and they grew to make the earth. Also, the myth also tells the story of how the turtles have strange markings on their shells, which was a result of Muskrat's paw with the earth that he'd placed on the turtle's back to make a safe place for the woman.
Thus, the correct answers are option a. b, and e.
