Choose one of the elements of literature, listed below. In the space below, write an essay of at least 500 words comparing and contrasting a literary element in "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly and "Through the Tunnel" by Doris Lessing. Elements of Literature tone theme setting character plot point of View conflict When you have finished proofreading your essay, submit it to one of your peers for peer review. Make sure you use the rubric in order to complete your evaluation.
Answer:
Throughout each story, the characters try to prove something to themselves or other people. In Maureen Daly's short story "Sixteen" the narrator is clearly trying to prove to the reader that she is smart and popular. A very clear example of this occurs at the beginning of the story when the narrator is describing herself. Daly writes, "I mean, I want you to understand from the beginning that I'm not really so dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn't. I get around." When she says, "I want you to understand," she is clearly directing the statement at us, the reader. As she goes on to say that she is not really that dumb, her message clearly becomes an attempt to convince us that she is smart. Finally, when she says, "I get around," it appears as though she is trying to tell the reader that she is popular. Combining what has just been learned from the narrator's statements, She is trying to prove to someone her ethos: that she is smart enough and popular enough to be telling us a story about a boy.

Explanation:
Giddy-up, cowboys and girls! In the Southwest during early half of the 1800s, cows were only worth 2 or 3 dollars apiece. They roamed wild, grazed off the open range, and were abundant. Midway through the century though, railroads were built, and the nation was connected. People in the Southwest could suddenly ship cows in freight trains to the Northeast. The Yankees there had a growing taste for beef and were willing to pay for it. Out of the blue, the same cows that were once worth a couple of bucks were now worth between twenty and forty dollars each. The only problem was that they had to get these cows to the train station. A new profession emerged from this. It became lucrative to wrangle up a drove of cattle and herd them to the nearest train town. Of course, it was dangerous too. Cowboys were threatened at every turn. They faced cattle rustlers, stampedes and extreme weather. But they kept pushing those steers to the train station. By the turn of the century, barbed wire killed the open range. Some may say the cowboy, too, was killed by barbed wire. Maybe, but it was the train that birthed them. Can someone help me get the main idea?
Answer:

what are five problems with this experimental design that could have caused the inconsistent results?
the rest that you can not read is: already started growing.
Results: Some of the roots seemed really big. Other roots seemed normal or small.
Conclusion: They couldn’t tell what the effect of the compost was because the results were inconsistent.
Hello. You forgot to show the description of the experiment. The description of the experiment is attached:
Answer:
The problems were:
Different species of plants were used.The plants were placed in different environments.The compost was placed on the plants at different times of plant development.Two different compounds were used. There was not enough compost for all the plants.Explanation:
An experiment must be carried out with completely equal resources, elements and factors for all tested objects and variables. In this case, for the experiment to have an efficient result, it would be necessary that the same species of plant be used (since the same species would present the same elements of development). In addition, all plants should be exposed to the same environment and receive the same amount of compost at the same stage of vegetative growth. These things did not happen in this experiment and therefore the results were inaccurate.

In at least one hundred words, discuss Orwell’s use of foreshadowing in Animal Farm. Use instances from the text to support your answer.
Answer:
Animal Farm makes heavy use of foreshadowing. Most of the plot’s main events are foreshadowed in the opening chapter. This foreshadowing emphasizes the inevitability of what happens, suggesting that violent revolution is doomed to fail, and that power always corrupts. Animal Farm’s foreshadowing also serves to place particular emphasis on the events Orwell saw as central to the failure of the Russian Revolution, and revolutions generally. The events most heavily foreshadowed are the different stages of the farm’s collapse into violence. Boxer’s death is foreshadowed in Chapter 7, when Napoleon’s dogs “go quite mad” and attack Boxer. Although Boxer is unharmed, this incident foreshadows Napoleon’s decision to have Boxer killed. Boxer’s death is also foreshadowed by the novella’s many references to the pasture that will be set apart for retired animals. As the pigs’ treachery unfolds, it becomes clear to the reader that the retirement pasture will never exist. As a result, every reference to Boxer’s retirement becomes an ironic foreshadowing of his betrayal and death. When Boxer himself looks forward to retiring, he is unwittingly foreshadowing that Napoleon will betray him, which emphasizes the cruelty of Napoleon’s deception.

Help please!!! What is the difference between the duties and responsibilities of citizenship? Which one of these duties or responsibilities do you think is most important? Why?
Answer:
Duty is a moral commitment to something or someone, whereas responsibility is a condition of being responsible. ... As a citizen of a country, a person has many duties to perform. It is his duty to adhere to the constitution. Responsibility can be termed as an ability to act at one's own will, without any supervision.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The responsibilities are more important
Explanation:
The responsibilities are more important because it is your civic duty to not do bad things but on the other hand it is your responsibility as a citizen to vote because right now it's election day and it's also your responsibility to pick up litter and stuff like that
