Read the introduction and first paragraph of an essay about energy sources.

(1) The nation's energy use is largely dependent on fossil fuels. (2) These fuels are nonrenewable resources, and they cause pollution. (3) We cannot continue our reliance on a fuel that will eventually run out. (4) Thus, we must find other ways to sustain our energy demands. (5) Pursuing alternative fuel sources is the key to solving our energy crisis.

(6) Currently, about 1 percent of energy in the United States is produced by the sun, and solar energy has the potential to become a more widely used energy source. (7) Through different technologies, such as solar cells, scientists have learned to use the sun’s radiation to create electricity. (8) Solar energy is both inexhaustible and clean. (9) The major limit to this alternative source is that equipment is expensive. (10) Developing a cost-effective way to harness the power of the sun will be a significant development in solving our energy crisis.

Which statement introduces a new counterclaim to the author’s position?
Batteries are being developed to harness the sun's power for use at a later time.
The production of solar energy is relatively quiet, reducing noise pollution.
Solar panels can be placed in remote areas, which is more cost effective than installing high-voltage wires.
The use of solar energy is especially limited in areas that do not get regular sunlight.

Answer:  Out of all the literary works listed above, The Odyssey seems portray the "struggle" of finding home. Odysseus travels all over in the story, spending most of the story away from home. While he is on his journey, he longs to be back home. And it's not just Odysseus that feels this way. While Odysseus is on his voyage, his mother back home literally dies from a broken heart, waiting on him to return.

     Out of all the epics/stories listed above, Oedipus Rex portrays grief the best. In Oedipus Rex, Oedipus is considered hero of the village, because he solved the sphinx's riddle, saving the citizens from the sphinx. however, Oedipus has been cursed by the gods from birth. He was cursed to kill his father, and marry his mother. When his biological parents hear this news, they cast Oedipus out as a infant, and he grows up never knowing his biological parents.  

     When Oedipus eventually hears this news, he runs away from his homeland, with the hope of avoiding the curse. While he is running away from his homeland, he runs into his biological father, and kills him in a chariot crash. He then unknowingly marries his mother, and they rule as king and queen. He then finds out he has fulfilled his curse, and he stabs his eyes out; because he no longer wants to see the truth. His mother also hangs herself, adding to the already tragic ending.

     And finally, Julius Caesar best portrays the human struggle of honor. In Julius Caesar, Brutus murders Caesar trying to save Rome from Caesar's dictatorship. Ironically, what this really ends up doing, is making Rome much, much worse. Because Brutus idolized honor so much, it kept him from realizing murdering Caesar was the worst thing he could possibly for Rome.

Hey hun, so a venn diagram is like a guide that helps you to identify how one object, person or thing is different compared to another object, person or thing. For example: A banana compared to a lemon. What’s the difference? You draw three circles. In one circle you will put banana, then put the qualities the banana has. For instance, a banana is sweet, soft and digestible. Now, what about lemon? In the opposite circle you will put the qualities of the lemon. For instance, the lemon is sour, you need to squeeze the juice out of the lemon and a lemon has a hard outer shell that’s not possible to bite out of. In the third cirlcle found in the middle you would put that both the banana and the lemon are yellow as a similarly and that they are fruit.

Answer:

John Keats

Explanation:

Britannica's answer: To Autumn, the last major poem by John Keats, published in Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St. Agnes. “To Autumn” comprises three 11-line stanzas.

Climate change has been a key factor in increasing the risk and extent of wildfires in the Western United States. ... Research shows that changes in climate create warmer, drier conditions. Increased drought, and a longer fire season are boosting these increases in wildfire risk.

Wildfire risk depends on a number of factors, including temperature, soil moisture, and the presence of trees, shrubs, and other potential fuel. All these factors have strong direct or indirect ties to climate variability and climate change. Climate change enhances the drying of organic matter in forests (the material that burns and spreads wildfire), and has doubled the number of large fires between 1984 and 2015 in the western United States.

For much of the U.S. West, projections show that an average annual 1 degree C temperature increase would increase the median burned area per year as much as 600 percent in some types of forests. In the Southeastern United States modeling suggests increased fire risk and a longer fire season, with at least a 30 percent increase from 2011 in the area burned by lightning-ignited wildfire by 2060.

Once a fire starts—more than 80 percent of U.S. wildfires are caused by people—warmer temperatures and drier conditions can help fires spread and make them harder to put out. Warmer, drier conditions also contribute to the spread of the mountain pine beetle and other insects that can weaken or kill trees, building up the fuels in a forest.

Land use and forest management also affect wildfire risk. Changes in climate add to these factors and are expected to continue to increase the area affected by wildfires in the United States.
