12. Give two examples of how we have learned about Greek
myths that are thousands of years old.

Answer:

From the beginnings of antiquity to the present, many examples of Greek myths have managed to filter down into modern society. Arguably, Greek mythology is the most widely studied of all mythologies. They wrote such vast and colorful volumes, that much of it found its way into western and, now, popular culture.

B. The influenza virus brings about many uncomfortable sensations in the body as it slowly spreads to more cells.

C. Much of the discomfort that people feel when they’re infected with influenza virus is from their immune system’s attack on the infection.

2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

A. “Every year, from 5 to 20 percent of the people in the United States will become infected with influenza virus. An average of 200,000 of these people will require hospitalization and up to 50,000 will die.” (Paragraph 1)

B. “When T cells specifically recognize influenza virus proteins, they then begin to proliferate in the lymph nodes around the lungs and throat. This causes swelling and pain in these lymph nodes.” (Paragraph 6)

C. “This results in a prolonged infection and greater lung damage. This can also set the stage for complications including secondary bacterial pneumonia, which can often be deadly.” (Paragraph 8)

D. “Functionally, influenza infection also hinders walking and leg strength. Importantly, in young individuals, these effects are transient and return to normal once the infection was cleared.” (Paragraph 14)

in there pasage “made out of meat”in paragraph 49 what waS the central idea

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."

The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion.

By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease.

Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up.

Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions.

In the end, the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in public health. Citizens were enraged at their governments for having kept prions a secret. Governments, who had lost the public trust, struggled to find the best way to communicate health risks without creating unnecessary panic.

How does the author's use of chronology help support the idea that the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in government use of law to support public health?

The author lays out a timeline to show how scientific discoveries made governments less likely to make laws for public health.
The author makes it clear that prions were always known to be dangerous and that scientists discovered them to be the cause of mad cow disease.
The author discusses how the mad cow disease epidemic ended only about twenty-five years after it first became a problem.
The author shows how frustrated people were that nothing was done about a disease until over ten years after it was discovered.

How does the archetype presented in the excerpt support the universal theme of loyalty to one's country? Antigone and Ismene act cowardly by hiding inside the castle, but it proves their loyalty. The warrior Polyneices attacks Eteocles, which proves he is loyal to his country. Eteocles defends Thebes against his own brother, proving his loyalty. Creon kills his son, which shows that he demands loyalty.
