The correct answer is "He spent the whole night there. Some of the time he passed in a light sleep, although he frequently woke from it in alarm because of his hunger, and some of the time was spent in worries and vague hopes..."
Explanation:
The third excerpt is the only one from the options that shows the perspective of the main character Gregor about his family. This can be seen in "he must show patience and the greatest consideration so that his family could bear the unpleasantness" that explains Gregor shows consideration or shows thoughtfulness for his family in this new situation. Also, in other excerpts, the narrator focuses mainly on the isolation of Gregor rather than Gregor's thoughtfulness for his family.
Answer:
True!
Some ribs fun facts:
1-12 ribs go lower in the anatomy as the numbers get bigger (1 is at the top 12 is at the bottom)
ribs 1-7 are 'true' ribs
ribs 8-10 are 'false' ribs, connected to the sternum with costal cartilage
11 and 12 ribs are 'floating ribs' have no actual attachment to the sternum
your ribcage actually extends 3 to 5 cm every breath you take, called most commonly a 'bucket handle' movement
no matter your se`x, you have 12 pairs (or 24) ribs
although women don't have 13 ribs, rare instances can occur where one has a "gorilla rib" where they have an extra rib!
the middle ribs are the most likely to get broken
hope this helps:)
Answer:
Assonance
Explanation:
Assonance is a literary device where author uses the same or similar vowel which repeats in one line. Assonance is being used mostly in poetry in order to give the poem rhythm and musical effect.
In this particular example, we may notice assonance in the sound of /a/ being repeated in several words (“May be refin'd, and join th' angelic train.”)
Global warming
Rising global temperatures caused by CO2 emissions heat the water, reducing its oxygen content.
Deforestation
Felling forests can exhaust water resources and generate organic residue which becomes a breeding ground for harmful bacteria.
Industry, agriculture and livestock farming
Chemical dumping from these sectors is one of the main causes of eutrophication of water.
Rubbish and faecal water dumping
The UN says that more than 80% of the world's sewage finds its way into seas and rivers untreated.
Maritime traffic
Much of the plastic pollution in the ocean comes from fishing boats, tankers and cargo shipping.
Fuel spillages
The transportation and storage of oil and its derivatives is subject to leakage that pollutes our water resources.
EFFECTS OF WATER POLLUTION
Deteriorating water quality is damaging the environment, health conditions and the global economy. The president of the World Bank, David Malpass, warns of the economic impact: "Deteriorating water quality is stalling economic growth and exacerbating poverty in many countries". The explanation is that, when biological oxygen demand — the indicator that measures the organic pollution found in water — exceeds a certain threshold, the growth in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the regions within the associated water basins falls by a third. In addition, here are some of the other consequences:
Destruction of biodiversity. Water pollution depletes aquatic ecosystems and triggers unbridled proliferation of phytoplankton in lakes — eutrophication —.
Contamination of the food chain. Fishing in polluted waters and the use of waste water for livestock farming and agriculture can introduce toxins into foods which are harmful to our health when eaten.
Lack of potable water. The UN says that billions of people around the world have no access to clean water to drink or sanitation, particularly in rural areas.
Disease. The WHO estimates that about 2 billion people have no option but to drink water contaminated by excrement, exposing them to diseases such as cholera, hepatitis A and dysentery.
Infant mortality. According to the UN, diarrhoeal diseases linked to lack of hygiene cause the death of about 1,000 children a day worldwide.
