Answer: Brutus has to decide between loyalty to Caesar and his own honor.
Explanation:
This excerpt expresses the main dilemma of the whole play - that is, the conflict between being a loyal friend and one's own honor.
In Shakespeare's <em>Julius Caesar</em>, a group of conspirators decides to murder the roman general, Caesar, because he has assumed too much power. They do not want him to become a king. In <em>Act I, Scene II</em>, Brutus, a friend of Caesar's, confesses his true feelings. As he hears that people want Caesar to assume this position, he makes a confession to Cassius, one of the conspirators, that he would not like this to happen. As he puts it, he does love Caesar, but loves his honor more. He is not even afraid of death, if that is the price he has to pay.
Answer:
Explanation:
More than 99 percent of all organisms that have ever lived on Earth are extinct. As new species evolve to fit ever changing ecological niches, older species fade away. But the rate of extinction is far from constant. At least a handful of times in the last 500 million years, 75 to more than 90 percent of all species on Earth have disappeared in a geological blink of an eye in catastrophes we call mass extinctions.
Though mass extinctions are deadly events, they open up the planet for new forms of life to emerge. The most studied mass extinction, which marked the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleogene periods about 66 million years ago, killed off the nonavian dinosaurs and made room for mammals and birds to rapidly diversify and evolve.
