In the following poem by Gregory Pardlo (published in 2007), the speaker describes watching children playing double Dutch-a version of jumping rope in which two ropes are turned in opposite directions.
Read the poem carefully. Write a paragraph in which you make a defensible claim regarding how Pardlo uses simile and metaphor to convey a complex image of the girls. In your paragraph, you should incorporate at least one piece of evidence from the text to support your claim .
"The girls turning double-dutch
bob & amp; weave like boxers pulling
punches, shadowing each other,
sparring across the slack cord
casting parabolas in the air. They
whip quick as an infant's pulse
and the jumper, before she
enters the winking, nods in time
as if she has a notion to share,
waiting her chance to speak. But she's
anticipating the upbeat
like a bandleader counting off
the tune they are about to swing into.
The jumper stair-steps into mid-air
as if she's jumping rope in low-gravity,
training for a lunar mission. Airborne a moment
long enough to fit a second thought in,
she looks caught in the mouth bones of a fish
as she flutter-floats into motion
like a figure in a stack of time-lapse photos
thumbed alive. Once inside,
the bells tied to her shoestrings rouse the gods
who've lain in the dust since the Dutch
acquired Manhattan. How she dances
patterns like a dust-heavy bee retracing
its travels in scale before the hive. How
the whole stunning contraption of girl and rope
slaps and scoops like a paddle boat.
Her misted skin arranges the light
with each adjustment and flex. Now heather-
hued, now sheen, light listing on the fulcrum
of a wrist and the bare jutted joints of elbow
and knee, and the faceted surfaces of muscle,
surfaces fracturing and reforming
like a sun-tickled sleeve of running water.
She makes jewelry of herself and garlands
the ground with shadows."
Explanation:
Remember, a simile refers to a literary device that employs the use of comparisons of one thing or subject with another thing of a different kind using such as, "like" or "as".
While a metaphor refers to a literary device unlike a simile, makes comparisons between two things that are not exactly alike but do have something in common usually in a figurative sense.
For example, we notice the author's use of simile when he said,
"The girls turning double-dutch
bob & amp; weave like boxers pulling
punches,"
Here he compares the girl's physical activity of "turning jumping ropes" to literal "boxers pulling punches", making such seemingly simple/less strenuous activity look complex.

Environmental scientists are often interested in evaluating both species richness and species evenness, so they have come up with miles
species diversity that take both measures into account. One commonly used index is Shannon's index of biodiversity. To calculate this index,
we must know the total number of species in the community (s) and, for each species, the proportion of the individuals in the community that
represents that species (p). Once we have the information, we can calculate Shannon's index of diversity (H) by taking the product of each
proportion (0) and its natural log (In ()) and then summing these products, as indicated by the summation symbol (E):
H-- pin(p)
where
H = the Shannon index value
P, = the proportion of individuals found in the ith species
In = the natural logarithm
S = the number of species in the community
The minus sign makes the index a positive number. Higher values of Hindicate higher diversity
Note: the book uses "n" and the formula I found online uses "s" for the number of species in the community.
Imagine a community of 100 individuals that are evenly divided among four species, so that the proportions () of the species all equal 0.25.
We can calculate Shannon's index as follows:
• H = -((0.25 x In 0.25) + (0.25 x In 0.25) + (0.25 x In 0.25) + (0.25 x in 0.25)]
• H-[(-0.35)+(-0.35) + (-0.35) + (-0.35)]
• 1.40
Now imagine another community of 100 individuals that also contains four species, but in which one species is represented by 94 indiviudals
and the other three species are each represented by 2 indivudals. We can calculate Shannon's index to see how this difference in species
evenness affects the value of the index:
• H = -[(0.94 x in 0.94)+ (0.02 x In 0.02) + (0.02 x In 0.02) + (0.02 x in 0.02)]
• H=-[(-0.06) + (-0.08) + (-0.08) + (-0.08)]
• 0.30
Because this value of His lower than the value we calculated for the first community, we can conclude that the second community has lower
diversity. Note that the total number of indiiduals does not affect Shannon's index of diversity, only the the number of species and the
proportion of individual within each species matters.
Your Turn
Imagine a third community of 100 individual in which those indviduals are distributed evenly among all the species, but there are only two
species, not four. Calculate shannon's index to see how different in species richness affects the value of the index

How do genetics (genetic predisposition) and the environment work together to cause substance abuse in individuals? What is the likely role of epigenetics in this process?
Answer: I could be wrong but id say
Genetics is the study of genes. Genes are functional units of DNA that make up the human genome. They provide the information that directs a body's basic cellular activities. Research on the human genome has shown that, on average, the DNA sequences of any two people are 99.9 percent the same. However, that 0.1 percent variation is profoundly important. t accounts for three million differences in the nearly three billion base pairs of DNA sequence. These differences contribute to visible variations, like height and hair color, and invisible traits, such as increased risk for or protection from certain diseases such as heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and addiction. Genetics and lifestyle factors—such as diet, physical activity, and stress—affect high blood pressure risk. NIDA research has led to discoveries about how a person's surroundings affect drug use in particular. For example, a community that provides healthy after-school activities has been shown to reduce vulnerability to drug addiction, and data show that access to exercise can discourage drug-seeking behavior, an effect that is more pronounced in males than in females.

Answer:
C 7.0*10^13 s^-1
Explanation:
The frequency of light that has the highest energy is; Option A; 1.4 × 10^(15) s^(-1)
Formula for energy of light is;
E = hν = hc/λ,
where;
E is energy
h is Planck's constant
ν is frequency
c is speed of light
λ is wavelength
Now, since E = hν, we can see that the energy is directly proportional to the frequency as h is constant.
Thus, the highest frequency will produce the highest energy.

Explanation:
The measure of the average number of children who are born to women of childbearing age in the population is called the fertility rate.
What is the population?The population is the portion that can be characterized as the total number of people residing in a given area or nation. These individuals are those who are mortal or alive.
The number of births to women of a certain range throughout the year expressed as a percentage of the average yearly headcount of women of such an age is known as the fertility rate of a certain age.
At a certain age the women's fertility rate is the highest and after that age has passed the rate of fertility is reduced. The number of birth per year with respect to the women of the fertility age is important to determine it.

Answer the following in several complete sentences:
How do external cues, internal emotions, and order of appearance influence memory retrieval?
Answer:
External cues activate associations that help us retrieve memories; this process may occur without our awareness, as it does in priming. Returning to the same physical context or emotional state (mood congruency) in which we formed a memory can help us retrieve it. The serial position effect accounts for our tendency to recall best the last items (which may still be in working memory) and the first items (which we've spent more time rehearsing) in a list.
Explanation:
i took the test?
The three ways that information can be retrieved from your long-term memory storage system are recall, recognition, and relearning.
What is the difference between external cues, internal emotions, and order of appearance that influences memory retrieval?External cues elicit feelings and memories because they are similar to past events or things we have seen.
Typically, exterior stimuli and experiences serve as triggers for internal emotions. An external event (such as the unexpected loss of a loved one) will be more deeply etched in memory if it has a significant emotional component.
In all other respects being equal, the hippocampus stores short-term memories in the cortex, where they are stored for a longer period, and preserves memories in a sequential order of appearance. Thus, we frequently remember things in the same order.
Memory retrieval is generally prompted by external cues and other memories. It helps us make sense of and respond to external events. It helps us think things through by connecting related memories.
