summary chapter 9 how to kill a mockingbird

Answers

Answer 1

At school, Scout nearly starts a fight with a classmate named Cecil Jacobs after Cecil uses an offensive racial slur to declare that Atticus defends black people. Atticus has been asked to defend Tom Robinson, a black man accused of raping a white woman. It is a case he cannot hope to win, but Atticus tells Scout that he must argue it to uphold his sense of justice and self-respect.

At Christmastime, Atticus’s brother, Jack, comes to stay with Atticus for a week during the holidays. Scout generally gets along well with Uncle Jack, but when he arrives in Maycomb, she begins cursing in front of him (a habit that she has recently picked up). After supper, Jack has Scout sit on his lap and he warns her not to curse in his presence. On Christmas Day, Atticus takes his children and Jack to Finch’s Landing, a rambling old house in the country where Atticus’s sister, Alexandra, and her husband live. There, Scout endures Francis, Alexandra’s grandson, who had been dropped off at Finch’s Landing for the holiday. Scout thinks Francis is the most “boring” child she has ever met. She also has to put up with the prim and proper Alexandra, who insists that Scout dress like a lady instead of wearing pants.

One night, Francis tells Scout that Dill is a runt and then uses an offensive racial slur to belittle Atticus, who sympathizes with black people. Scout curses Francis and beats him up. Francis tells Alexandra and Uncle Jack that Scout hit him, and Uncle Jack spanks Scout without hearing her side of the story. After they return to Maycomb, Scout tells Jack what Francis said and Jack becomes furious. Scout makes him promise not to tell Atticus, however, because Atticus had asked her not to fight anyone over what is said about him. Jack promises and keeps his word. Later, Scout overhears Atticus telling Jack that Tom Robinson is innocent but doomed, since it’s inconceivable that an all-white jury would ever acquit him.

https://storyworks.scholastic.com/issues/2020-21/030121/the-vanishing-beast.html#800L-900L

Answers

Answer:

Habitat loss—driven primarily by human expansion as we develop land for housing, agriculture, and commerce—is the biggest threat facing most animal species, followed by hunting and fishing. Even when habitat is not lost entirely, it may be changed so much that animals cannot adapt.

The general meaning for Buffalo throughout the Plains was that of power, safety, strength, life's sacredness, and durability. A white Buffalo is particularly important being an omen of unity, hope, and positive transformation.

Life had been hard ever since Ana arrived on campus. She was far from home and didn't feel like there were many people she could talk
to. Ana had a bad habit of assuming that everyone agreed on matters that she felt were obvious. One day, while sharing her opinions
with the class, she assumed that everyone agreed that rap and hip-hop music were always about the same thing. After class she noticed
that some of the students were avoiding eye contact. When the class met next, she felt the need to explain herself: "I mean, hip-hop is
just like pop music. All pop songs are about love. All rap songs are about crime." This caused a few groans at the back of the classroom.
How could Ana speak and act with sensitivity as she tries to thrive in a diverse world? Check all that apply.
She could turn to the instructor and demand that he or she explain to the other students what she means.
She could ask the students who disagree to prove their opinion by naming three songs that don't focus on crime as a topic.
She could engage the students who disagree by saying, "Maybe I am wrong. Why do you love rap music?"
She could apologize and admit she doesn't know enough about rap music to speak with authority.
>
She could ask the students who love rap and hip-hop if they would be willing to recommend a good history of the art form.

what factors determine the strength of electric and magnetic forces?

Answers

Answer:the amount of electric current

Explanation:trust

Whether the core is made up of soft or hard magnetic material and The number of turns in the coils are the factors that determine the strength of electric and magnetic forces.

What are Electromagnetic forces?

Physical interactions between electrically charged particles are known as the electromagnetic force. It is the result of the interaction of all magnetic and electrical forces and operates between charged particles.

The amount of current flowing through the coil determines how powerful an electromagnet is; the stronger the current, the more powerful the magnet. The magnetic field around it also grows as a result of the increased current since more electrons are flowing through it.

The strength increases with the number of turns in the coils; the more coils, the stronger. This is due to the fact that as the number of coils increases, the magnetic field becomes more homogeneous and hence stronger.

Compared to strong magnetic materials like steel, soft iron cores magnetize more quickly.

Therefore, The magnet is always surrounded by a magnetic field. The electric field and magnetic field are similar.

How does storm develop?​

Answers

Answer:

Thunderstorm, a violent short-lived weather disturbance that is almost always associated with lightning, thunder, dense clouds, heavy rain or hail, and strong gusty winds. Thunderstorms arise when layers of warm, moist air rise in a large, swift updraft to cooler regions of the atmosphere. There the moisture contained in the updraft condenses to form towering cumulonimbus clouds and, eventually, precipitation. Columns of cooled air then sink earthward, striking the ground with strong downdrafts and horizontal winds. At the same time, electrical charges accumulate on cloud particles (water droplets and ice). Lightning discharges occur when the accumulated electric charge becomes sufficiently large. Lightning heats the air it passes through so intensely and quickly that shock waves are produced; these shock waves are heard as claps and rolls of thunder. On occasion, severe thunderstorms are accompanied by swirling vortices of air that become concentrated and powerful enough to form tornadoes.

Answer:

Thunderstorms form when warm, moist air rises into cold air. The warm air becomes cooler, which causes moisture, called water vapor, to form small water droplets - a process called condensation. ... This circuit of rising and falling air is called a convection cell. If this happens a small amount, a cloud will form.

Answer:

D. That was the derogatory term that others called her family.

Explanation:

Mirikitani's "Attack the Water" relates to Ruckeyser's "Poem" because they both focus on what civilians experience during wartime. "Attack the Water" describes the struggle of Vietnamese people during (and after) the Vietnam War, and of Japanese-American people during the era of Japanese labor camps. "Poem" reflects the struggle of people living during both of the World Wars, trying to get by, and trying to get through such a tragic time. Both of these poems show that even when people are not directly involved in a war, they are still directly effected by it.

Explanation:

Select the correct answer.
Monty is writing an argumentative text about not having exotic animals as pets. He needs help clarifying his claim in the introductory paragraph. Read an excerpt and notice his claim in bold.

For years, human beings have been fascinated by wild animals. We visit zoos to attain some type of intimacy with these animals in their new homes. We sit through shows watching them perform tricks and depending on the animal, we get to pet them. All these experiences are educational for many. However, some people’s fascination with these animals has grown to the point that they desire to have these animals as pets. Exotic animals are becoming popular, and I wonder if they make good pets.

Exotic animals are meant to live in their natural habitats. If they are not in their natural homes, then they should be in controlled settings such as zoos. The average person is not equipped to care for them in a typical home. Experts estimate that approximately 20,000 exotic wild cats are living as pets in the United States. Sadly, that is almost more than the number of tigers that exist in their natural environment. In states such as Texas, people must have a license to own wild animals such as tigers, however, the state does not have regulations to guarantee the protection of those animals once they have been bought.

Caring for exotic pets is extremely costly and can become dangerous. Annual food costs for one tiger cub can cost up to $6,000. These cubs can even weigh up to 500 pounds in a just a few short months and become strong enough to overpower the average adult. These animals require plenty of space to roam and feel comfortable. Luckily, when pet owners are worried about not doing a good job raising these animals, there are pet sanctuaries that are willing to take the animals and care for them.

Which statement below best serves as a claim to replace Monty’s current claim?

A.
Exotic pets are not ideal for everyone.
B.
The popularity of exotic pets is becoming alarming and must stop.
C.
Wild animals are becoming increasingly popular.
D.
Exotic animals are more difficult and expensive to care for and as such should not be pets.
If right, you'll get big brain!

Answers

Answer:

D. Exotic animals are more difficult and expensive to care for and as such should not be pets.

Explanation:

The statement below best serves as a claim to replace Monty’s current claim is option D. See more about claims below.

What is a claim?

When a person expresses their opinion based on an idea or topic, such a person is said to have made a claim.

Recall that the best claims are those that are buttressed using factual references.

Hence, the statement below best serves as a claim to replace Monty’s current claim is option D which state that:

Select all the words that form the independent clause in the sentence. The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious.

Answers

Answer:

The words that form the independent clause in the sentence "The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious." are: The movie was hilarious.

Explanation:

There are two types of clauses:

Independent clauses: they can stand on their own. That is to say, that they make sense when we read them. There is no need for extra information to understand the meaning.Dependent clauses: they can not stand on their own. In other words, they depend on another clause, which gives the necessary information to understand the meaning of the dependant clause.

Both types of clauses consist mainly of a subject and a verb, they are separated by commas, or they have subordinating conjunction at the beginning of the clause.

In this case, the clause between commas (which we watched yesterday) is the dependant clause. I can not fully understand the meaning of it when reading only that clause since information is missing. The clause The movie was hilarious is the independent clause because it can stand on its own.

Fitzgerald is adept at using symbolism. Other than the green light on Daisy's dock, discuss two other uses of symbolism so far in the novel The great Gatsby?​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As stated in the question above, "The great Gatsby" has many symbolisms, since the author was a great believer in this literary artifice. It is important to emphasize that symbolism is a figure of speech that allows reality to be presented in a subjunctive way, through elements that represent it, but this reality is not exposed in a literal way.

One of the symbols featured in the book is the mansion where Gatsby lived. This mansion represents the greatness of the character, but the emptiness that he presented inside. That's because although Gatsby's mansion is huge, luxurious and has many parties, Gatsby was always alone and lonely in that immensity of prosperity.

A second symbol presented is the Valley of Ashes, which represents the people who were trapped between a world of wealth and a world of economic decay, created by the exploitation and corruption and illegalities that formed the economy of the 1920s. This valley also represented the separation between rich people and those who were extremely poor.
