Answer:
Fact
Explanation:
It is not a opinion; there are no arguments, nothing about what the person thinks, and it's stating a fact.
Hamlet does accept the duel however, for two reasons: firstly, it offers him an opportunity to resolve his conflict with Laertes, whose forgiveness he craves (a fencing duel with foils - blunted blades - is a courtly sport after all, and chiefly an exercise in male bonding).
Secondly, and more significantly, Hamlet is world-weary and ready to succumb to any outside agency.
Answer:
B. How do water striders skim across the surfaces of ponds and lakes? Their hydrophobic legs are uniquely suited to this process, but the insects
Explanation:
Below are the options given:
<em>A. NO CHANGE</em>
<em>B. How do water striders skim across the surfaces of ponds and lakes? Their hydrophobic legs are uniquely suited to this process, but the insects</em>
<em>C. How do our bodies break down the food we consume every day? While digestion would be impossible without enzymes and other proteins, these molecules</em>
<em>D. How does our DNA maintain a double helical structure? While the shape of this nucleic acid is the result of many complex properties, its structures</em>
Option B is correct because it gives a concrete, casually observable example from the natural world and thereby accomplishes the goal. It explains the connection between surface tension and electronegativity.
Option B gives an example from the natural world - the water strider.
The water striders are a good example of insects that use the high surface tension of water and long, hydrophobic legs. This enables them to walk on water. Their legs are coated with a hydrophobic substance. The hydrophobic substance makes the legs to repel water molecules i.e it makes water unable to stick to their legs. This makes them to easily skim on water surfaces.
B. A chapter that offers social commentary and is interwoven with narrative chapters
