For what purposes do animals use the following?

English
1 answer:
bija089 [108]3 years ago
3 0
I) webbed Feet are useful for pushing animals quickly through water, especially for animals who swim often but still maintain legs / limbs that aren’t fish… more effective than other feet or limbs but still more mobile in other terrains unlike fish
ii) Sharp claws are often used either to hunt and kill or disable prey, or as self defense; sometimes both. Predators use them to capture prey within their grasp and sometimes kill prey. Prey animals will use them as defense.
iii) strong eyesight is useful for animals which require food sources that are camouflaged: eyesight is also useful for animals who rely on body-language as communication with one another, as well as animals like humans who interpret things like sign language. Strong eyesight during different times of day are useful for animals depending on what time they are awake and actively searching for food. Eyesight can also help animals avoid different dangerous situations, such as spotting predators from afar, etc.
iv) gills are used to allow animals to breathe underwater. This is useful for creatures who live beneath the water, hunt underwater / have food sources mainly underwater, or who otherwise spend long times hiding under the ocean or even living in secure places in water.
v) wings allow animals to glide or take flight; they’re initially useful for allowing animals a useful mode of transportation for escaping from predators, building / living in more secure places where other animals cannot go, hunting (such as hawks hunting mice from the air), and more. It also allows for easy and powerfully reliant migration.

None of these answers were taken from a text, they were just off the top of my head. Hope this helps :)

In at least one hundred words describe how bly uses sarcasm in his poetry to evince an emotion reaction from his readers. How is
svetlana [45]

I do not know the poems by Robert Bly that you have read in class, but I would argue that in poems such as "A Dream on the Night of First Snow," for instance, the author uses a very graphic, visual, and arguably sarcastic language when talking about his dream - he first mentions a girl whom he met in an attic and who "talked of operas, intensely," and he abruptly changes topics and goes on to refer to his happily encounter with a salamander (which seems to have amused him more than the girl) and to describe, meticulously and almost humorously, the way the little creature "strode over a log" and left. One can clearly picture the salamander striding "confidently like a chess master" and rising up "like a tractor," and almost feel for it, while one can also smile slightly thinking of the girl who talked intensely about operas and was left alone by the speaker in the attic while she continued to do so.

Another example of Bly's use of imagery and sarcasm with the goal of evincing an emotional reaction can be identified in "The Bear and the Man," which brings a bear closer to a man, and vice versa, by referring to a loss that both of them have experienced: the death of their respective sons. Ironically, the bear's son was killed by a trap, set (it can be inferred) by a man, and the man's son, who was inebriated and alone in the woods, was killed by a bear. The bear knows "his kin," abandoned down jackets among them, and so does the man, although the speaker seems to imply that the former knows more than the latter. They face each other and may fight at any moment, but the speaker, instead, reminds the reader that they share a grandmother (a reference to the Ursa Major or Great Bear) that watches them closely from the sky, in an attempt, perhaps, to reconcile them.

PART A: Which sentence described the main theme of the drama?
valentinak56 [21]

<u>Answer</u>:

The sentence that described the main theme of the drama is people can create change when they stand up for what they believe in peacefully. The correct option seems to be Option D.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Be it any forum, if change needs to be welcomed, people need to work together towards the same goal and create and live that change. It should also be done peacefully without creating any kind of violence. So, unity and non-violence act as the catalysts to bring a change. The drama too centres on the same thought which gives shape to the theme. Unity melts down all differences and when people come together with this mind set, the result is always peaceful and positive .
