what is wrong with this sentence: the majestic sea turtle

Answers

Answer:

It is a fragment because it is only the subject

Answer:

It is not a sentence.

Explanation:

"the majestic sea turtle" consists of a lone fragment. To make it a complete sentence, you must add a verb/action to the subject... this will give meaning to the phrase and make it a logical sentence.

ex 1) The majestic sea turtle was cruelly misshapen due to rings of plastic litter floating in its habitat.

ex 2) The majestic sea turtle attempted to swim, but fragments of sharp metal clung to its forelimbs and impeded its graceless maneuvers.

Write a paragraph that states and defends a claim about which object from A History of the World in 100 Objects is the most historically significant. Choose one of the following objects: the Benin plaques, The Great Wave, the Sudanese slit drum, or the suffragette-defaced penny.

Answers

Answer:

Benin Plaque is the most historically significant object in my opinion. This plaque is dominated by the majestic figure of the Oba himself. "It is about 40 centimetres (16 inches) square; its colour strikes you as coppery rather than brassy, and there are five figures on it, three Africans and two Europeans. In the proudest relief, on his throne, wearing a high helmet-like crown and looking straight out at us, is the Oba." It is also recorded that more than in 1 in 20 Londoners were of black African descent, a figure that has continued to rise in the years since. Modern British life and culture now have a strong African component. This development is merely the latest chapter in the history of relations between Africa and western Europe. It is very unique. 

Explanation:

The Benin plagues are metal plagues and sculptures that are used for the decoration of the royal palace of the Benin kingdom.

The plaque is dominated by the majestic figure of the Oba. In the proudest relief, on his throne, wearing a high helmet-like crown and looking straight out at us, is the Oba.

It is also recorded that more than 1 in 20 Londoners were of black African descent, a figure that has continued to rise in the years since. The plagues are typically made of brass and bronze and signify the culture of the people of Benin.

What kinds of examples should go under "Background knowledge” to help the reader make an inference?

a)Personal experiences
b)Logical conclusions
c)Personality traits
d)Text details

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The answer that makes the most sense is D) Text Details.

A isn't the answer because this is something we would hear/read about first to know what is happening and to get details of who the character is before diving into the story. This is information about a character.

B isn't the answer because conclusions would be made near the end or middle of the story, where we make inferences and conclusions of what happens when the story ends. This would be Inference.

C isn't the answer because we are being told the traits of a person. This answer and A could possibly be background knowledge, as we get to know the character before the story begins so we aren't lost, we could learn about these during the story as well. This is information about a character.

D is correct because we are given text details about the story/character. We would be given things like how they ended up in the beginning situation, where they are from, why they are here, etc.

What is made of water but if you put it into water it will die?

Answers

Answer: Its ice I think

Explanation:

Ice, when put in water melts, which is made of water, when in liquid state.

Water, which is in liquid state kept to freeze up, converts into solid state, Ice.

So as the science goes, ice melts in water and converts back to its original state, that is water.

Physical state is what this is, as we know there are mainly three states, solid, liquid and gaseous.

Converting from one to other is a process where one state gets back to its normal (previous) state.

Answer:

Explanation:

It all started as a rumor, and before long, everyone knew about it. I thought I could keep my secrets to myself, but they were bound to escape me at some point. My name is Peter. Through an abnormality found upon my birth, I was born with an extra pinky toe, and with it came many intrusive thoughts. After a certain age, age 7 in fact, I became incredibly self-conscious, and the aforementioned thoughts became commonplace in my frontal lobe. Reflections like "I wish I was normal," and "Why was I born this way?" were incredibly common thoughts I would bring up. No one listened or cared to share advice until the 8th grade. By that point, I was largely comfortable with my genetic appendage and never paid it much mind. However, that all changed on the day I mentioned my extra toe to my best friend, a well-known gossipmonger in my school. It was then that everyone knew, and the day I decided not to attend high school next year. It started as a rumor, grew to insane proportions, and will remain a mystery from now on, unknown to all except who I trust.
