A metaphor
B simile
C alliteration
D personification

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Its A

Explanation:

Answer 2
The answer is B (simile)
because it used the word like and similes use like or as while comparing two things. While metaphors create implicit comparisons.

Easy explanation: Basically the only difference is similes use like or as metaphors don’t to sum it up.

A. What is backpacking?

B. Am I old enough to go backpacking?

C. What skills and gear are needed to go backpacking?

D. What kind of backpack do I need to go backpacking?

Answer:

I would say answer C would be a good question since you will have more evidence on what you need to go backpacking instead of answer if you're old enough to do it.

Yes, C would be a good. It’s specific, but not too specific. It’s also not so broad that it’s a boring research topic. It’ll be easy to find sources on this topic. Good luck! I hope your research project goes well! :)

Write a 300-word essay about the role of governments in controlling population growth. Here are some questions you should address in your essay:
(If you can’t write 300 words, just answer the following questions below.)

Should governments be concerned about rapid population growth? If so, which ones and why?
What services should governments provide its citizens? How does a growing population affect a government's ability to provide these services?
In what way does a rapidly growing population impact the environment?
What can governments do to protect the environment?
Do you think that governments should promote family planning? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

The role of governments in controlling population growth is discussed below.

Explanation:

Human reproduction preparation is the application of deliberately regulating the scale of an increase in the human population.

More newly, some nations, such as China, Iran, and Spain, have initiated attempts to raise their childbirth rates once again.

Below are the most efficient means which can be applied to regulate population growth:

Delayed Marriages.

Medical Facilities.

Legislative Actions.

Women Empowerment.

Eradicate Poverty.

Answer:

The government should be concerned about rapid population growth because it could lead to things like, food shortage, unemployment numbers increasing, the homeless numbers increasing, even an increase in disease

The government should help the citizens start their lives as in providing basic education through taxes and helping those who have hit hard times and need a little assistance, however with a bigger population and an increasing one as well the money supply to do such things is going to wear thin and make taxes go up or they stop doing such services

With too big of a population our carbon footprint could break down the O zone layer rapidly and cause the suns rays to be able to reach us and possibly cause cancer, we take up more room meaning less room for nature and we eat more so less animals and could cause extinction of certain animals climate will continue to increase

The government can put in rules about how much land can be used or how it is used keep companies from tearing down forests and make them government nations parks to reserve nature, get the people using more renewable resources instead of nonrenewable

The government should not be in citizens family related issues as in how many children they should have, when they should have them... etc however I do believe that before having children parents should be educated about the pregnancy process all that is to come ...etc BUT this all could be done through a DOCTOR who is the parents physician and not by government
