Read the excerpts from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry" and "Speaking Arabic."

My friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. He took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of Spanish, English, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. In other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.

At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, “I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel-so lonely for one." And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head. Which best states how the structures of the excerpts are similar?

A. Each presents factual evidence to appeal to the reader's logic.

B. Each documents career credentials to appeal to the reader's ethics.

C. Each discusses a friend to appeal to the reader's sense of community.

D. Each relates an anecdote to appeal to the reader's emotions.​

Help 10 pts! (will mark brainliest ) Describe the ways in which the novel met or did not meet your expectations. How were both Victor Frankenstein and the monster he created different in Shelley's novel than in other interpretations or adaptations of the Frankenstein story that you've encountered? Explain any elements of the novel that you found surprising in terms of its treatment of characters, events, and themes.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The additions to "Frankenstein" leave a lot to be desired. This is because they present the monster as a violent creature, without the ability to think, being completely monstrous and without reasoning. This is completely different from the book, as we know that the monster is a violent creature, but we can see that its intellectual and cognitive capacity is very high. The monster is a big intellectual, which reinforces the understanding that he has about him, about his appearance and about the world around him. This promotes a depth in the work that we are unable to see in its adaptations. In the book all the actions of the monster are done on the basis of reason and thought, in the adaptations the monster acts in complete irrationality.

We can also see many differences in relation to Victor's representations. In the book victor he is a very intelligent man, however disturbed by everything that creation has caused. Even with the pertrbation and sadness, Victor maintains his intellectual integrity, which makes the fight, between him and the monster, more significant. In the adaptations Victor is shown as a crazy man, a completely insane scientist, which takes away all the depth of the character.

The adaptations of the work have shallow themes and are limited to themes such as the creation revolt against the creator and the dangers of science. The book has many themes that are deep and well explored. The book shows the fascination and fear of humans in relation to science and technology, in addition to topics such as alienation, revenge, ambition, dangers of knowledge, abandonment, depression, life, death, among others.

When humans perspire, water, urea, and salts containing sodium are removed from the blood. Drinking water during extended periods of physical exercise replenishes the water but not the sodium. This increase in water dilutes the blood and may result in the concentration of sodium dropping low enough to cause a condition known as hyponatremia. Symptoms of hyponatremia include headache, nausea, and lack of coordination. Left untreated, it can lead to coma and even death. The body has a variety of feedback mechanisms that assist in regulating water and sodium concentrations in the blood. The kidneys play a major role in these mechanisms, as they filter the blood and produce urine. The best way to reduce the symptoms of hyponatremia would be to
