What is carolyn?

Roy and Carolyn Bryant and J. W. Milam will always be linked to the 1955 murder of Emmett Till. In the minds of many, they live in history as the trio that got away with murder.

Carolyn Bryant, the daughter of a plantation manager and a nurse, hailed from Indianola, Mississippi, the nucleus of the segregationist and supremacist white Citizens' Councils. A high school dropout, she won two beauty contests and married Roy Bryant, an ex-soldier.

The couple ran a small grocery, Bryant's Grocery & Meat Market, that sold provisions to black sharecroppers and their children. The store was located at one end of the main street in the tiny town of Money, the heart of the cotton-growing Mississippi Delta.

Therefore, Carolyn and her husband had a bad past, or something bad happen to them that may be the cause.

How does Shakespeare develop the central idea of individual v. group identity in this scene ?

Answers

When Romeo and Juliet fall in love, their individual desire for each other—“ancient grudge” and thus the social order of Verona, a city run by noble families like the Montagues and Capulets—places them in direct opposition with the society of which they’re both a part. As Romeo and Juliet fall deeper and deeper in love, they come up against their friends, their families, and the political and religious authorities which govern the city of Verona. Throughout the play, Shakespeare uses the tragedy which befalls Romeo and Juliet—both teenagers and effectively children—in order to argue that the  constraints and demands of many societies ignore or actively agitate their most vulnerable members.

Giraffes eat the leaves from tall trees. Other animals cannot

What is the main idea of the passage?

b. Giraffes don't sleep very much.
c. Giraffes are unique animals,
d. Giraffes eat leaves.

Answers

a giraffes are extremely tall animals

Giraffes are extremely tall animals is the main idea of the passage. Hence, option A is correct.

What is Giraffes?

Giraffes are powerful metaphors for guidance and leadership. Giraffes represent the ability to recognize patterns and even warning signs when others can't. The giraffe also serves as a metaphor for a pioneer or trailblazer.

Giraffes are the tallest animals in the animal kingdom due to their long necks and lengthy legs. A giraffe's legs are about 6 feet tall, making them taller than many people. Giraffes can run as fast as 35 miles per hour over short distances and can traverse long distances at a comfortable 10 miles per hour because to their massive legs.

The giraffe's heart is not bigger than those of most mammals, but it does have a thicker muscle on the left ventricle that can generate enough force.

Thus, option A is correct.

You are in charge of planning an expedition to Antarctica. Write a letter to the scientists traveling with your group regarding the purpose of your expedition, what they should bring with them, and what they should expect to do while there.

WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO BEST ANSWER.

Answers

Answer:

237 Troutman Drive

Beaufort, SC 12345

Dear Colleagues,

I am very excited about the adventure that lies before us! Very few people ever get the chance to study in or even visit Antarctica. Truly, this will be the trip of a lifetime! The purpose of our visit will be to assist the resident zoologists of Bird Island in a biannual survey of their animal population, specifically the penguins and petrels.

It is vital that everyone brings appropriate gear for the expedition. Each person must have a parka, waterproof boots and pants, warm base clothing that can be layered, warm socks, at least two pairs of waterproof gloves, scarf, windproof hat that covers the ears, and sunscreen. Optional items to consider bringing are camera with waterproof bag, binoculars, backpack, sunglasses, and seasickness medication. The key words to remember are "cold" and "wet"!

Our responsibilities will be fairly simple during our three-week trip to Bird Island. Half of us will be counting penguins, and half of us will be counting petrels. We will alternate day and night shifts; but once you are assigned to count a bird, that is the only type of bird you will monitor. There will be no changing of assignment. In addition, the resident scientists of the island will be selecting three of us to assist with their fur seal studies.

I look forward to getting to meet each one of you on the day of our departure. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Rebekah Kalin
