Answers

Answer:

Draining the wetland can bring about effects such as: Loss of plant and animal diversity, deterioration of the water quality of the wetland, soil erosion, loss of plains, infiltration problems, problems in water supply and quality, proliferation of pests, disharmonization of wetland hydraulic regimes, among others.

Explanation:

Pantanal water is essential for life and maintenance of all beings present in this environment, in addition to being extremely important in the water cycle that impacts worldwide.

UNDERLINE THE PARTICIPLE OR PARTICIPIAL PHRASE IN EACH SENTENCE​
Leaping over the hurdles, Cindy appeared as graceful as an antelope.

Answers

Answer:

The participial phrase is underlined below:

Leaping over the hurdles, Cindy appeared as graceful as an antelope.

Explanation:

A participial phrase is formed by a present or past participle and nouns, pronouns, or other modifiers that complement the participle's meaning. It functions as an adjective, modifying a noun in the sentence. Take a look at the example below:

- Jumping up and down, the little girl looked ecstatic. → "Jumping up and down" is a participial phrase, and it modifies the noun "girl".

In the sentence "Leaping over the hurdles, Cindy appeared as graceful as an antelope," the participial phrase is "leaping over the hurdles", "leaping" being a present participle. This phrase is modifying the proper noun "Cindy", offering further information about her.

you are Rajesh of class 7F at Abu Dhabi Indian School, Al Muroor, Abu Dhabi. you have been absconding from the swimming classes for a month. your class teacher was brought into notice by the trainer. she asked you to write an apology letter, explaining why you did not attend the classes. write an apology letter in 80-100 words

Answers

Answer:

Dear Professsor.

My name is Rajesh and I am part of the 7F class. I believe that you do not know me, because I have been missing swimming lessons for a month.

The reason for my absences in classes is an immense phobia that I have of large volumes of water, which prevents me from being able to participate in swimming classes. Although I have a psychological certificate that confirms my phobia, I did not have the courage to present it to you, for fear of becoming the target of a joke from my classmates.

Anyway, I would like to apologize for my behavior and for my unexcused absences in class. I would like to set up a meeting with you to better explain my situation and to apologize personally.

I appreciate your patience.

Rajesh Been.

Explanation:

When writing an apology to a teacher it is necessary for the student to present a short and direct text, where he identifies himself, presents the reason for his speeches and apologizes using formal words and a cultured language. This type of letter should end with a thank you for the reader's time and patience, in addition to presenting the full name of the letter's author, as the example above shows.
