Read the following paragraph. How does sentence 3 develop the main idea of the paragraph?

Gertrude Belle Elion was born on Jan. 23, 1918, in New York City.
She graduated from Hunter College in New York City with a degree in biochemistry in 1937.
Unable to obtain a graduate research position because she was a woman, she took a series of jobs, including lab assistant, chemistry and physics teacher in New York City high schools, and research chemist.
During this time she also took classes at New York University, where she earned a master's degree in 1941.
Because she could not devote herself to full-time studies, Elion never received a doctorate.
It shows how determined Elion was to learn more about biochemistry.
It supports the idea that Elion could not get accepted into colleges.
It shows how her different jobs helped her to be a better chemist.
It supports the idea that women can be very determined.

Answer:

answer with explanation

Explanation:

sentence 3 has the main idea because it tells us what the point is about this story. We know who you are talking about and this gives us a major reason on how youll go on about thism

Answer:  It shows how determined Elion was to learn more about biochemistry.

Explanation:  The main idea seems to be that Elion had to struggle to advance in her career. When she could not immediately get into grad school, she took opportunities that were related to her interests and would help her to learn more about biochemistry until she could earn her master's degree.

The last two answers may also be true, but the question is about the support for the main idea in this paragraph

Read this excerpt from White Fang by Jack London.

White Fang saw his mother taken aboard Three Eagles’ canoe, and tried to follow her. A blow from Three Eagles knocked him backward to the land. The canoe shoved off. He sprang into the water and swam after it, deaf to the sharp cries of Grey Beaver to return.

This is an example of conflict between

Grey Beaver and Three Eagles.
White Fang and nature.
White Fang and Three Eagles.
White Fang and Lip-lip.

This may be unintentional, but I just changed my level as I was actually kidding about some things in the profile. Whenever I ask questions, you guys may get confused about the level, but now, it won't be as confusing. Also, if you want to explain about this issue of leveling, you can answer this question. Don't just put random things as your answer, you have to say something specific.

Review this excerpt from the video script on apprenticeship.
“By the Middle Ages, apprenticeships extended beyond the craft fields. Universities began offering what would essentially become master’s degrees or practical experience in the field of study. Even religious orders created long, practice-based training periods. Lawyers gained experience by working as apprentices with master attorneys.”
Why is, “During the Middle Ages, many fields adopted the practice of apprenticeships to ensure trainees had practice experience” a good summary of this text?
a. It establishes a connection between the main ideas.
b. It is one sentence
c. It shares a strong opinion.
d. It copies what the text says so there’s no chance for misunderstanding.

The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.

But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"

The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief.

"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."

It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch long—with scales and wings.

So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.

And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings.

"Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."

And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadays—and at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.

According to the bolded text, how did the characters react to the creature?

With indifference
With disgust

Read the text then answer the question that follows:

Wild animals as viewed from a mountain camp—Camille Grant, October 2011

Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.

Review the following line from the text:

Tourists who had paid money for a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can.

We were all ranked together at the valuation. Men and women, old and young, married and single, were ranked with horses, sheep, and swine. There were horses and men, cattle and women, pigs and children, all holding the same rank in the scale of being, and all were subjected to the same narrow examination. Silvery-headed age and sprightly youth, maids and matrons had to undergo the same indelicate inspection.
