1. Exoskeleton
2. Hydro skeleton
3. Endoskeleton

Answers

Answer:

Invertebrates without Exoskeletons

They use fluid in their bodies to keep their shape and move around. Some invertebrates without skeletons are jellyfish, slugs, and worms. Invertebrates that don't have exoskeletons need other ways to protect themselves. Jellyfish have powerful stingers on their tentacles.

A non-helical hydrostatic skeleton structure is the functional basis of the mammalian penis.[3] Helically reinforced hydrostatic skeleton structure is typical for flexible structures as in soft-bodied animals.

The Coleoidae do not have a true endoskeleton in the evolutionary sense; there, a mollusk exoskeleton evolved into several sorts of internal structure, the "cuttlebone" of cuttlefish being the best-known version. Yet they do have cartilaginous tissue in their body, even if it is not mineralized, especially in the head, where it forms a primitive cranium. The endoskeleton gives shape, support, and protection to the body and provides a means of locomotion.

5. What is the narrator foreshadowing at the end of paragraph 2

Answers

The narrator is foreshadowing the fire at the end of paragraph two in the story ‘The Leap’, written by Louise Erdrich.

What is foreshadowing?

Foreshadowing is a literary method in which a writer employs clues in form of words, phrases, and sentences to indicate a future occurrence without giving away the storyline. This approach adds to the suspense and drama of the tale as it unfolds.

What details foreshadow the fire?

Details like “I hear the crackle,” “the stitches burn,” and “a thread of fire” at the conclusion of paragraph two hint at the impact of the fire that the narrator will describe in the short story's conclusion.

Thus, in the short story "The Leap", the fire is foreshadowed by the narrator's memory of the smell of smoke and crackle of flame.

What is the main technique this poster uses to

Answers

It’s glittering generalities. Because plain folks won’t persuade an audience and name calling will probably make them walk away

Glittering generalities is the main technique this poster uses to persuade the audience. Hence, option B is correct.

What is Glittering generalities?

A phrase that appeals to the emotions and is so closely tied to highly esteemed concepts and beliefs that it transmits conviction without proof or justification is a dazzling generality, also known as a bright generality. The public favors such highly valued concepts.

Using seductive language and appealing imagery, the dazzling generalities marketing method advertises the products. This advertisement's message is that if you buy the product, you'll be using a gorgeous one that will change your life.

Glittering Generalities: Propagandists make generalized statements (typically in the form of slogans or short catchphrases) that appeal to the audience's deeply held beliefs without providing any supporting data or arguments.

Thus, option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

A woman has three daughters. The older two have no luck at all but the youngest, Nella, is as usual lovely and talented and more or less perfect. She is having a secret affair with a handsome prince who lives many miles away. The two lovers build a glass tunnel that runs under the ground—from the prince’s castle into the princess’s bedroom, so that they might “joy together” without the mom’s knowing it. Every night the prince runs through the tunnel naked to spend time with his young princess.

Nella’s two sisters, who are ugly and evil, learn of the affair and smash the glass tunnel. That night the prince is running so fast to reach his young lover that he doesn’t see the broken glass and the skin all over his body is cut. Because the glass that cut him was enchanted his wounds will not heal. The prince’s father vows that the woman who can find a remedy for the enchanted wounds will be the prince’s wife and if a man heals him he will be given half the kingdom.

Nella is heartbroken upon hearing of her mortally wounded prince, and goes out disguised to at least see him before he dies. Luckily, she overhears two ogres telling each other that the only thing in the whole world that will heal the prince is to smear the fat from their own bodies all over the prince. Nella, pretending to be lost in the woods, begs the ogres to let her into their house. The ogre husband, fancying a bit of human flesh, lets her in eagerly but sadly he drinks so much alcohol that he passes out before he gets to eat her.

Nella quickly gets to work and slaughters him then collects all the fat from his body in a bucket. She makes her way to the prince’s palace. She smears the fat into the prince’s wounds and he is healed as if by magic, then she reveals her identity and the marriage is swiftly arranged. And her sisters? They are burned alive in typical fairy tale fashion, “so that like unto leeches they should purge their blood in the cinders of their wickedness and envy.”

Well, in a way it is, but it isn’t about your core personality, humanity or your soul. It’s much harder to bounce back when you take failure to heart too much and make it about your value as a person. Your importance to those who love you does not change when you fail; your potential to make a difference in the lives of those around you does not change. If anything, your potential increases with every failure experience you have, since the most painful events in life often give us the most valuable experiences and dramatic growth.
