How is each idea developed and explained?What details support each one? In your answer, be sure to • identify three central ideas presented about the rivalry • explain how the text develops and explains these ideas • use details from the article in your answer
Answer:
The Bone Wars is an episode in the history of paleontology that led to the discovery of some of the most famous dinosaurs.
Explanation:
The rivalry between Cope and Marsh was what led them to commit illicit acts and even destroy several dinosaur bones in order to "destroy" each other.
They began to collect fossil bones, and hidden from Cope, Marsh had paid for the bones to easily reach him.
Although both were great scientists, instead of working together they attacked each other in a public way.
However, this enmity helped to discover large species such as Diplodocus or Anisonchus Copehater.
Finally, the one who "won the war" was Marsh, who found 80 new species of dinosaur, while Cope found 56.
The middle hieroglyph was unknown to him, but he guessed that the two at the left symbolized the sun.
From his studies of Coptic, Champollion knew that the Egyptian word for "sun" was pronounced rah. He wrote down the first two letters of that sound, RA. Next he put a question mark for the unknown middle hieroglyph. Then, at the end, he wrote SS, the sound of the last two hieroglyphs.
He studied the combination: RA ? SS. Suddenly he remembered a famous pharaoh whose name appeared in ancient Greek chronicles and also in the Biblical Book of Exodus: Rameses, or Ramesses. Could this be a hieroglyphic representation of Ramesses' name?
The details in the excerpt point to which big-picture idea?
Hieroglyphs are both a representation of sounds and symbols.
Several famous names can be found in the Biblical Book of Exodus.
The sun has symbolic meaning in many different cultures.
Champollion knew that the Egyptian word for “sun” was pronounced rah.
Answer:
The answer is A. Hieroglyphs are both a representation of sounds and symbols.
Explanation:
Although many people think of Egyptian hieroglyphs as logographic or pictographic, it actually combines symbols for entire words with symbols for individual sounds. That is, it is a system that is partly logographic and partly alphabetic. It can be called logophonetic. Egyptian symbols can represent individual sounds.

Martin Luther King Jr. uses figurative language strategically throughout his letter to promote equality. How does the following instance help accomplish his purpose of challenging the church leaders to take action against racial injustice?
Like a boil that can never be cured as long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its pus-flowing ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must likewise be exposed, with all of the tension its exposing creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.
Respond in three to five complete sentences.
Answer:
He uses figurative language by comparing injustice to a boiling pot. This is so the people he is talking to get a better/ complete picture of what is happening.

To what extent is Lin Manuel Miranda’s portrayal of the relationship between Alexander Hamilton and Angelica schuyler accurate?
Answer:
Explanation:
Part of what Lin Manuel Miranda wrote in the musical Hamilton is imagined and part is true.
The parts he exaggerated are:
In a part of the song Satisfied where Angelica tells how she wants Hamilton despite him not being rich ("And Alexander is penniless / Ha! That doesn’t mean I want him any less"), she sings “I’m a girl in a world in which / My only job is to marry rich / My father has no sons so I’m the one / Who has to social climb for one)”. This part is not true, as her father had two sons. Angelica was already married and had children at the time of the initial meeting with Alexandar. These are not circumstances in the musical shows. Angelica didn’t probably introduce her sister Eliza to Hamilton. The historical evidence said that the pair likely knew each other from before.
However, the true parts are:
Angelica likely had a small crush on her brother in law. In one of the letters, she wrote to Eliza: “If you were as generous as the old Romans, you would lend him to me for a little while,” a line that was partly used in the musical. Angelica wrote to Hamilton as to her “dear and naughty Brother” in one of the letters. Hamilton probably returned these affections. In one of the letters, he wrote to Angelica “I seldom write to a lady without fancying the relation of lover and mistress.” He also frequently returned her compliments.Hamilton and Angelica had a close and affectionate relationship, even flirting a bit. This is also seen through their letters in which they describe their affection, missing each other. Their conversations are witty and flirtatious. Historians explain this kind of communication was possible exactly because they were both married. They were likely friends joking with each other, but it would be scandalous if the public saw this type of relationship between man and woman if they were single and not in their separate relationships.Therefore, we can conclude that Miranda did exaggerate the circumstances of Angelica’s and Hamilton’s relationship, but he did not invent the attraction and affection between them.

In Selection 1, the author includes a claim that the wild horses have Spanish origins. Which statement best delineates the claim? Most evidence suggests that the horses are in fact a native species, supporting the argument that the horses must have actually been in North America for more than 11,000 years. The horses' Spanish orgins have been verified by DNA analysis, and this common ancestry helps support the argument that there is now a serious problem of inbreeding in the horse population. Although the horses' orgins are not actually certain, the claim supports the argument that the horses have been wild on the barrier island for a very long time and should be treated as a native species. There is no evidence to suggest that the horses are actually from Spain, which supports the argument that the horses are recent additions to the island and their range should be limited to protect endangered species.
This question is about the article "Wild Horses as Native North American Wildlife"
Answer:
Most evidence suggests that the horses are in fact a native species, supporting the argument that the horses must have actually been in North America for more than 11,000 years.
Explanation:
According to the article, wild horses of Spanish origin were taken to North America with Columbus and his entourage. They deposited these horses in Mexico, on Colombus' second voyage to the continent in 1493. The horses that were brought in at that time were E. caballus, which from where Mexico is today, began to spread across the Great Planices, intermingling in territory of the USA and giving rise to the native species we know today.
Read the negative position from "Animal Rights Debate."
It is clear that humans are superior to animals, and therefore animals should not have the same rights as human beings. The Greek philosopher Aristotle argued that only humans have the ability to reason. Animals only have instincts to guide them. Therefore, they are not sentient, or thinking, beings like humans are. In addition, humans show their superiority to animals through control. Humans have superior abilities that allow them to raise animals for a variety of uses. Human beings are in control of animal life, making animal rights unnecessary.
Which statement best uses the ideas of the negative position to provide an affirmative rebuttal?
Animals can show humanlike traits, such as cooperation and the use of tools.
The purpose of animals is to be either consumed or used, regardless of whether they can reason with others.
Even though humans can communicate their reasoning better
Answer:
Even though humans can communicate their reasoning better than animals, animals like chimpanzees have shown that they reflect on their own thoughts.
Explanation:
A rebuttal is a way of contesting an earlier statement, showing facts that prove that the previous statement is not correct, but has inconsistencies and therefore cannot be considered.
An example of this can be seen in the question that presents a text that states that animals do not need rights, since they are not able to reason and reflect. In this case, it is possible to refute this claim by claiming that even though humans can communicate their reasoning better than animals, animals like chimpanzees have shown that they reflect on their own thoughts.
Which text evidence best supports the authors' claim? "A plantation was not a new technology but, rather, a new way of organizing planting, growing, cutting, and refining a crop." "By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets." "Since one cannot live on sugar, the crop grown on plantations could not even feed the people who harvested it." "The mill was right next to the crop, so that growing and grinding took place in the same spot."
Answer:
By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets.
Explanation:
In the book, Sugar changed the world, the authors tried to take us through the history of sugar especially during the ea of slavery.
The authors tell us that the plantation was a new and revolutionary way to the whole process of making sugar. From planting to drying and also selling. Ant that for the first time in history these farms were having such form of organization.

Which detail from "The Workers of Ellis Island" best describes the general experience of arriving at Ellis Island?
The complex work of processing thousands of immigrants a year required a full complement of staff.
As long lines of immigrants slowly entered Ellis Island's Main Building, they were examined swiftly and expertly by the doctors for any sign of disease or signs of physical or mental weakness.
Sometimes the entire family was held on the Island while a child or responsible adult was being treated.
An interpreter needed to convey the equivalent (or a close equivalent) of the words and meanings expressed by an alien immigrant and a United States Immigrant Inspector or other Ellis Island worker.

Earlier this week we identified a central theme in The Giver, that - painful memories of the past are important to hold onto because they bring wisdom to the present. How does the information on pages 139-141 support this theme? Use two pieces of evidence from the text in your AEZEZC response. *
Answer:
Pages 139-141 show the giver telling a painful story about a woman he loved and who was selected as a receiver of memories. Although the romance did not end happily, it gave the giver the memory of someone special and gave him more experience in helping his next friends, who would also be selected as recipients of memories.
Explanation:
"The giver" is a dystopia where young people are selected to keep the memories of humanity, especially the memories of pain and suffering, which the population does not want to have. Although this society seems to be utopian, it proves to be dystopian, since it removes the experiences of humanity, forcing them to live in sameness and causes suffering for the people who will keep these memories and carry the "weight" of the world on their backs.

How would you convince your teacher to change your grade using pathos
Answer:
By appealing to their emotions.
Explanation:
Pathos is a term first introduced by Aristotle, who is often referred to as the father of rhetoric. It's also called the appeal to emotion and refers to using arguments to draw out certain emotions in the audience and through them get them to change their point of view.
If you wanted to convince your teacher to change your grade using pathos, you would have to tell a story that would make them feel compassion. For example, you could tell that you were ill and didn't feel well enough to study, ask them for another chance, and similar.

Explanation:
The narrator tells of what a terrible experience it is for children who have to walk along the road with cars speeding by at an alarming rate. He mentioned that it was a thing of luck that more accidents have not already occurred.
Sidewalks are meant to be a safer route for passersby. Since the students are at the mercy of cars speeding along in Green Street, that would only mean that there is an absence of sidewalks to protect them.
