20 POINTS! Read the passage below and complete the task that follows.
"Scientists have learned a great deal from manned space flights. One unexpected discovery has been that humans are not well adapted to life in space. Life without gravity causes the fluid in a human body to float upward, which not only creates uncomfortable pressure in the head and chest, but also weakens the leg muscles. Long space missions can also cause astronauts to develop brittle bones, vision problems, and difficulties eating and sleeping enough.
NASA hopes to send astronauts to Mars in the 2030s. Scientists calculate a trip to Mars would take around 2.5 years. To date, the longest a human has lived in space is 438 days, a feat achieved by Russian cosmonaut Valeri Polyakov on the Mir space station in 1994–95."

Explanation:
Red Shift is basically a slang term about how machines used to infer light see a red shift compared to previous results on the same galaxy since light traveling farther away is red, this information tells scientists that those objects with red shift are farther away. RST also supports the theory that the galaxy is expanding, as everything is getting farther away from what appears to be a center point, which supports the big bang theory.

HELP PlZ BAD AT ENGLISH CAN YOU TELL ME HOW I DID ON MY ESSAY
Summer Of 2019
Swish, Swish is the sound I wake up to the morning of August 6 of 2019.
I also hear the sound of my cousin Malichi’s voice,” Wake up Dyllen the fish should be jumping in Gelmark cove.”( A cove that my family named after my uncle won his first fishing Championship in). Anyway, I get up ready for a good three or four hours of fishing. On our way down to the boat dock, we all get all of our bait tied on will my uncle pulls the boat. And the second we hit the water I hop into the driver seat of my uncle's bass boat to go pick him up after he parked the truck. On the way to the cove, all we feel is the wind in my face and I am starting to wish I brought a hoodie. Once we get there we all grab our poles and start to fish, and even though we have been there 20 minutes we all have caught at least a 5-pound fish. Eventually, after another 20 minutes, we head to another spot. After the first 40 minutes of fishing and the last other spots, we head back to camp to get breakfast. When we arrive everyone is awake even some of my uncles' friends are up to having a good time eating good food. Also when we pull up into the camp all you can smell is the smell of bacon, fried eggs, rice, sausage, and other Asian breakfast foods that are too hard to pronounce, but masarap which means delicious in my family’s language according to my uncle. After a good meal we all get ready for a great time on the lake tubing, swimming, kayaking, fishing, and even sitting on the boat waiting for your family members get thrown off the tube, Once all of the fun is done in the middle of the lake we all go to the cove next to our campsite that is made for swimming. And once we are there we all get ready to swim make it safe for the little ones, so that means cleaning up our fishing stuff from this morning and putting it inside our boxes and safe away, as that is going on I am one with cleaning my fishing equipment and hop into the water to help my uncle move the kayak’s on the other side of the boat so we do not hit his friend's boat.”Ugh ooo ugh” is the noise I make getting into the kayak to help move it, but about 30 seconds later those noises are cut short by the pain that just shot up against my left elbow of a hook. So apparently my cousin Caden dropped a crankbait that has 6 hooks 3 on each end and 2 hooks got jabbed into me. Anyway, He dropped them and tried to get it as I was trying to get into the kayak but he fell into the water moving the bait closer to me and when he got the bait he started to doggy paddle back and as he was doing that he got my elbow, A little bit after that everyone was confused why I screamed until they saw the hook into my arm. When back on the boat getting ready to get the stupid hook out of me, scared to death that they are going to rip it out, and hearing them say I am a drama Queen. After finding it out, we got ready to go back to the campsite with me and my uncle to clean my wound. After that, we go back to the boat to go back to the rest of my family. And to my luck I see Caden crying for what he did to me on accident it felt worse on him than me.

describe the language used in the declaration of independence
British English
All English was still British English, but change was beginning to happen. Declaring independence from England most definitely helped that process along.
Read the excerpt from the Declaration of Sentiments. Having deprived her of this first right of a citizen, the elective franchise, thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation, he has oppressed her on all sides. Which words in the excerpt have negative connotations? Check all that apply. deprived elective representation oppressed sides
The correct answers are deprived and oppressed
Explanation:
Words have negative connotations if these are related to negative feelings, practices, emotions, etc. This means the word is considered to convey a negative meaning.
In the excerpt presented, the two words with negative connotations are "deprived" and "oppressed". The word "deprived" is used to describe the lack of something and in this case, the word shows how women could not vote or have other rights, which conveys a negative meaning.
On the other hand, the word "oppressed" describes the state of being dominated or controlled. This is also related to a negative meaning because the author expressed women were oppressed or dominated in all areas.
The words in the excerpt that have negative connotations are: Deprived and Oppressed.
Words with negative connotations are those that do not leave a good feeling in the reader. Such words foretell gloom and negativity.
In the Excerpt from the Declaration of Sentiments above, we find that the use of negative words like Deprived and Oppressed communicate in a very vivid manner, the sufferings of the women in American.

Imagine that a grown-up Lizabeth is granted the opportunity to return and apologize to Miss Lottie, explaining why she destroyed the marigolds. Write a narrative that focuses on the dialogue that takes place between these two characters, years after the events described in the story. To prepare, review textual details and descriptions of Lizabeth's childhood world, how her feelings developed over the course of the text, her motivations and interactions, and consider how they influenced her devastating actions.
Answer and Explanation:
Not much had changed. Our neighborhood was still poor, just less miserable. As I approached Miss Lottie’s house, my heart began to sink. She had not lost her desire to bring some beauty into this world. There it was, a garden filled with marigolds just like the one I once killed. I say killed because I now know what I did was something like murder. Killing someone else’s hopes and dreams, because my own had been shattered.
I planned on saying all that to her. I knocked and waited. Slow, dragging footsteps reached the door; veiny, trembling hands opened it.
In a matter of seconds we sat facing each other in her dark kitchen. I tried to avert my gaze, but to no avail. She didn’t seem to bother. I began.
“I’m sorry.” There was nothing else I could have said, no better ice-breaker. As she remained silent, I carried on. “Miss Lottie, I’m sorry about that evening, about ruining – killing – your marigolds.”
She looked down.
“I have come to apologize and give you an explanation. Not a justification, not an excuse. I just… I’d like you to know what I felt that evening.”
Miss Lottie faced me, her eyes scrutinized my face.
“I had just understood, finally comprehended, how unfair life was. How sad, poor, and unbearable a life we were all doomed to live. My parents, myself, my brother, the children I’d have in the future… And I was angry. I felt impotent, and that is why I was angry. There was nothing I could do,; I was powerless in front of reality.”
Miss Lottie took a deep breath. She finally spoke, her voice hoarse and as old as time.
“Then why my flowers?” There was not accusation in her tone.
“Because they were not reality. They were… beauty. They were hope. They were everything we did not, could not have. I was angry at their existence because they represented a different life. The life none of us would ever have.”
She nodded. A faint smile crossed her lips.
“I knew that already,” she whispered as she got up from her chair. “But it feels nice to finally hear it.”
Miss Lottie was making us some tea all of a sudden. I was stunned. Speechless. She knew all along. She had known all those years. Did that mean she had hated me all the while, or…?
“I never blamed you,” she whispered once more, as if she had read my guilt in my eyes. “How could I? How could you blame yourself?” She sat down once more.
“But Miss Lottie… I shouldn’t have -”
“We all do things we shouldn’t do. We all get carried away by our anger, our fears, our disappointments. You’re only human, dear. Your life and happiness are more precious than a thousand gardens.”
We drank the tea.
Summary for "The Lady or Tiger"
The story first introduces a "semi-barbaric" king, who has implemented a unique form of justice within his kingdom: if the king believes that someone has committed a crime, they are placed in an arena and forced to choose blindly between two identical doors. Behind one door is a beautiful lady who will promptly become the accused’s wife; behind the other door is a tiger. Then the Kings daughter falls in love with a very handsome man. The king puts the man in an arena and forces him to choose blindly between the two identical doors. But the Man looks at the daughter and daughter tells the man to choose the door to the right. Then the author wants you to finish the story.
[...] But the Man looks at the daughter and daughter tells the man to choose the door to the right. Then the apprehensive man looks the king right in the eye and refuses to choose any door. The surprised king asks the man why he refuses to obey the orders of his king and his princess.
The man promptly replies that because of selfishness and a concern for the princess's happiness he is unable to escape one of the doors. This is because if he chooses the door where the tiger is, he will be killed and his soul will wander the land without peace, until the love of his life, the princess, meets him in the Hereafter. However, if he chooses the door where a beautiful maiden is placed, he will have to marry a woman with whom he is not in love, leaving three unhappy lives. His life, for not marrying the one he loves, the life of his wife, for being married to a man who does not love her, and the life of the princess, for seeing her love with another woman.
So instead of choosing between the doors, he chooses to ask, dearly, that the king grant her the daughter's hand in marriage, thus preventing three souls from living in suffering.
The king, moved by the man's words and seeing his daughter's happiness, has no choice but to allow marriage.

Any number to the zero power is always:
A. zero
B. a positive
C. a negative
D. one
Answer:
I believe the answer is D. one because google says
"In short, the multiplicative identity is the number 1, because for any other number x, 1*x = x. So, the reason that any number to the zero power is one is because any number to the zero power is just the product of no numbers at all, which is the multiplicative identity,1."

Here's an example: your (possessive noun) and you're (contraction.) They sort of sound the same, but both are used in different ways. It may be tricky, but I know you'll get the hang of it.
