Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

an theme of the story is to never speak on somebody else .

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

One important theme is perseverance. The story highlights the importance of never giving up. The conflict behind this theme is evident from the way that Clay struggles against nature in the climb up the mountain. Clay's effort pays off when he successfully reaches his destination and discovers even more firewood than he thought would be there:

"Reaching upward the distance of a step, he brushed away the snow, and in the frozen gravel and crumbled rock of the slide chopped a shallow resting place for his foot. Then he came up a step, reached forward, and repeated the maneuver. And so, step by step, foothole by foothole, a tiny speck of toiling life poised like a fly on the face of Moosehide Mountain, he fought his upward way."

"The gully opened out into a miniature basin, in which a floor of soil had been deposited, out of which, in turn, a tiny grove of pines had sprung. The trees were all dead, dry and seasoned, having long since exhausted the thin skin of earth."

"Clay ran his experienced eye over the timber, and estimated that it would chop up into fifty cords at least. Beyond, the gully closed in and became barren rock again. On every hand was barren rock, so the wonder was small that the trees had escaped the eyes of men. They were only to be discovered as he had discovered them— by climbing after them."

Answer :

I first heard about the Holacaust in History last year. I know about this event because it was a very important event that caused a lot of lives to be lost and highlighted the terrible living conditions. I learned that it was also considered to be a war and the Jews were the main people to take place in this event.

“I first heard about the Holocaust when *whenever you knew about it*, I know that Hitler was a evil man and killed many Jewish People or people who didn’t have blue eyes and blonde hair. He did many bad things and it lasted 1941 - 1945. Many people came down with sickness from not being well cared for. I looked up the words program and Holocaust and saw many articles about the Nazis trying to kill many with disabilities and mental problems by torture and euthanizing them.

Answers

Answer:

something that causes illnesses

Explanation:

A pathologist is a doctor who deals with changes caused by diseases.

Based on the knowledge of the prefix patho (which means “disease”) and the context clues, pathogens can be defined as: a.) something that causes illness.

What is pathogen?

Any organism or agent that can produce disease is called pathogen.  Viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and worms are five main types pathogenic organisms .

Pathogens can easily be introduced into food from infected humans who handle the food without washing their hands properly. Pathogens are  transferred from trace amounts of fecal matter present on hands to food.

Foodborne pathogens are biological agents that cause foodborne illness. A foodborne disease outbreak can be defined as occurrence of two or more cases of similar illness resulting from the ingestion of a food.

Sanitizing reduces the number of hazardous bacteria effectively from a surface to such levels that are considered safe by the Environmental Protection Agency. Sanitization after cleaning is a must. Cleaning can removes soils, but it does not kill germs and the best way to ensure that all germs get removed is by using a food grade sanitizer.

It is wintertime so the weather is cold.
They know that the Secret Annex does not have heat.
They would look suspicious if they carried suitcases.
They were in a hurry and did not have time to pack properly.

Answers

Answer:

They were in a hurry and did not have time to pack properly.

It is wintertime so the weather is cold. Hence option a is correct.

What is weather?

Weather is defined as the condition of the atmosphere, including how hot or cold, wet or dry, quiet or stormy, clear or foggy, etc. it is. It includes the temperature outside, the wind speed, and the weather conditions, such as whether it is raining, sunny, hailing, snowing, sleeting, foggy, or cloudy. The weather frequently varies and has a tendency to vary between countries, seasons, and terrain.

Since air gets trapped between layers during the winter, wearing more layers of clothes keeps us warmer than wearing just one heavy piece of clothing. Air is a poor heat conductor, thus it prevents heat from the body from escaping.

Thus, it is wintertime so the weather is cold. Hence option a is correct.

Read this excerpt from Chapter II of Alice in Wonderland.

Her foot slipped, and in another moment, splash! she was up to her chin in salt-water. Her first idea was that she had somehow fallen into the sea. However, she soon made out that she was in the pool of tears which she had wept when she was nine feet high.

Just then she heard something splashing about in the pool a little way off, and she swam nearer to see what it was: she soon made out that it was only a mouse that had slipped in like herself.
