Which word would best describe an all-blue automobile?
O 1. monochromatic
O
2. lithograph
3. monolith
4. monograph
The correct answer is 1. Monochromatic
Explanation:
The word "monochromatic" means one tone or color. This word derives from the prefix "Monos", which means one, and the word "chromatic" that refers to color or tones. In this context, if an object contains only one color or tone, the object is considered monochromatic. In this context, the most appropriate word to describe an automobile that is all blue is the word monochromatic. Also, other words are not related to tones or colors, for example, a monolith is a type of geographical structure and lithograph is an artistic method.

write 3-5 paragraph essay on this particular topic: how important is individualism ? there are several questions that need to be answered
1. Does individualism add to, or take away from, the idea of a united entity?
2. Is collective thought the only way a society works?
3. Should people, right or wrong, be vilified for their thoughts?
4. How do your thoughts around this question shape your personal life's philosophy?
Why is individualism important
Some people live life to the fullest and some live life like someone else does; those people are not being an Individual. An individual is someone that stands out from the normal crowd. An individual stands up for what he thinks is right and his own convictions, no matter what the cost he must pay is. Individualists also are really great leaders; they help people with the task at hand because of the fact that they do not want to fail.
Individualism is very important to me; it is the base of most people's personality. Being an individual means a lot to most people. Personal feelings about individualism are very strong; I am an individual and proud of it. Standing for principals, and living without worrying about what others may think. There is no one that can take what someone feels and stands for away. Everyone is unique and that is what makes the worldMost people believe that individualism means being alone. People that individualism turns away from cooperation. If one is too much of an ``individualist,'' people say, that person can not get work done with a team. Actually, my personal thoughts would oppose the thought that a person who does not listen to others want to do work in an effective way. An individual wants the work done right and the work done at a fast pace. A true individualist wants the best for him or her self, so he or she search for the best no matter what it takes to obtain it. To
