Explanation:
The cane toad, or Rhinella marina, was introduced to the Hawaiian Islands in 1932 by sugar cane farmers. The farmers released the toads in their crops to help control pests that were damaging the sugar cane. The cane toad has few natural predators because it secretes a poisonous toxin that kills the animals that consume it. As a result, the cane toad population thrived, and by 1935, it numbered hundreds of thousands. Which role does the cane toad play in the Hawaiian Islands? native species invasive species reintroduced species endangered species
Answer:
The role that the cane toad play in the Hawaiian Islands is "invasive species"
Explanation:
The excerpt describes the process of how the cane toad was introduced to the Hawaiian Islands, as a new species in this land and to control pests, it also mentions that by not having many predators the number of cane toads grows rapidly, this two points are clear examples of what represents an invasive species which come from a different land and grows excessively in a new one becoming a new threat to the environment. As the name of the kind of role they played shows, they invaded the Hawaiian lands.

Daisy decides to go on a hike to a picnic area. Her map shows that when she reaches the giant oak tree she will have completed 60% of the hike. When Daisy reaches the giant oak tree she has walked 18 kilometers. How many kilometers does Daisy have left to reach the picnic area?
Answer:
12km
Explanation:
Given that:
Let:
Total distance = d
From start to giant oak tree = 60% of hike
Distance from start to giant oak tree = 18 km
Hence ;
60% of d = 18km
0.6d = 18km
Divide both sides by 0.6
0.6d/ 0.6 = 18km / 0.6
d = 30km
Total distance of picnic area = 30 kilometers
Hence, distance left to reach picnic area :
Total distance - distance covered
30km - 18km
= 12km

Topic 6: Some young people view celebrities - including professional athletes, actors, and musicians -
as role
models. Do you think that celebrities are good role models? Explain why or why not. (2007, EOC)
Supports:
1.
2.
3.
Thesis Statement:
Answer:
They are good role models in that they tend to be very talented people who through effort and discipline, obtain great achievements in their respective fields. In this sense, they can serve to inspire people to better themselves.
However, they should not be thought of as role models in every single aspect of life. They may lack abilities or knowledge in some areas, that would make it dangerous to have them as role models for every single aspect in life.
Answer:
Explanation:
Many athletes are held to a high standard because many little kids look up to them as role models and leaders. They often have built up a narrative to pursue, making sure they are a leader to the many boys and girls that look up to them, so one wrong choice can lead them to a path that can be unforgettable and could ruin their career. This pressure could overwhelm them while playing sports and even render their performance.
As athletes, we are taught to become leaders and treat others with respect. As time goes on, they can show how great of a role model they are to younger kids and influence them to do great things in their life. All of the pressure they put on athletes shows how they can handle stress and not get in the way of the game—showing how kids can one day aspire to be like their favorite athlete. Many young kids like to see their favorite athlete in the spotlight and their everyday lifestyle. The young kids love to see how they built a life for themselves and one day aspire to become successful athletes.
Athletes have no obligation to the media or fans beyond fulfilling what is asked for by their coaches, managers, and team owners. The rest comes down to personal ambition, which manifests itself in the show that keeps these same media members and fans employed and engaged. They shouldn’t have to be spotlighted unless they asked for it. It can cause many mental challenges such as depression and anxiety. Many athletes just want to focus on the game at hand and make their parents proud with all the hard work and dedication to making them successful.
In conclusion, having pressure built into every game you play can make you lose focus on what you love. The greats like Naomi Osaka and Simon biles are taking a mental break because they couldn’t handle all the stress the fans and the coaches put on and taking a break from their career and focus on what is in front of them. Their families and friends show how everything doesn’t need a spotlight.

someone write a scary rat horror story with plot setting conflict place time of day details
characters i will mark you brainless
Answer:
I was born in Indiana. I know what your thinking, where the hell is Indiana? Well in the place i live in, it's pretty small and quiet town. I lived here all my life. My name is Jamie, and I'm 15 years old. This town is haunted. Not by what your thinking of. No scary ghost lady looking for revenge, or a banshee, or a demon that steals children. There is this man that passed away a long time ago. I guess he was bullied when he was little for being deformed or something. Everyone has their own story so it changes a whole lot. But I think I know the real story. Kids were real a holes back then, not like their better now, but they would always abuse this poor kid. I remember I heard someone mentioned that he got a pet rat one day and one of the kids threw it on the road and they all saw a huge truck pass by and kill it. The poor kid grew up mean I guess. Then killed himself when he was in his twenties. Now every once in a while their would be a rat infestion all over town. Everyone blames it on the story. It never seemed to happen at our house though. Never. It would happen at my neighbor's, my aunt's, my crush's house down the street. Never mine. Until now. My mom and dad went to go on a trip for their 10th anneversery. (sorry don't know how to spell that) and I got to stay in and lay around. Or so they thought. I invited my friend Kelly. My mom was so cautuos when she left. Because it's around this time for the infestation.I didn't worry. Why would I? When kelly came over, there was a knock before she arrived. I opened the door and saw no one. Ten minutes later another knock, she was there. Bright, pretty Kelly. I asked her about it but she said that she just arrived. I brushed it off. We laid around, played with some makeup. Then she wanted to bake some cookies. She had marshmellows and wanted to add them. But all of our supplies were downstairs. In the basement. I should of stayed out of there. We both went down because I was scared. I hate the dark. we grabbed the stuff, the baking powder, the cake stand, the spatulas. Thats when the door shut. I screamed at the sound and she bursted out laughing. She called me an idiot. I love it when she laughs. She climbs up the stairs and opens the door. Then she looks behind her shoulder at me, telling me its fine. We plopped the stuff on the counter and started baking. It was around ten when it happened. In our town we have this stupid siren that gives me a heart attack every single time. It's suppose to signal the rats infestation. It's always the same day, the same hour, the same minute each time its starts. 10:43 pm on a saturday in the months of June, August, and October. We shrugged it off, cause we both knew we were good. We should of been careful. We heard yells outside, those were the neighbors. We ignored it. Ten minutes later it was quiet again. Everyone should of left by now. They would either leave town or go to the shelters. So know one was on our street. No one to hear our screams. Thats when we heard scratches. On the wood, around the table, in the kitchen. They were everywhere but we couldn't find the trace of the sound. Until we saw them. The most ugliest creatures on planet earth. Their small tiny faces had teeth that shaped into something that looked like a sneer. It had begun....

In at least 150 words write a summary of serve the people
Answer:
"Serve the People" talks about the duty to serve and to save the suffering Chinese citizens. It also talks about how there is sacrifice when there is struggle and that dying while serving the people is a worthy death. According to the text, it states, "But we have the interests of the people and the sufferings of the great majority at heart, and when we die for the people it is a worthy death." This tells the readers that dying for the people is worth it and will get the recognition of the people. It also talks about how anybody that has done something useful dies, either a soldier or a cook, that they should have a proper funeral ceremony as well as a memorial meeting in the presence of their honor. Based on what I read, "This should become the rule. And it should be introduced among the people as well. When someone dies in a village, let a memorial be held." This tells the readers that they care about the people and that this is a way in which they express their mourning for the dead and to unite all the people.

write the following in passivevoice i am sweeping the room
Answer:
The room is being swept (by me).
Explanation:
Passive voice is a construction that we use when we want to put the accent on a person or an object that is under the influence of a subject`s performed action ( in this case: the room)
Passive voice form is being made by using the appropriate form of the verb to be + past participle.
Subject and object from the sentence in the active voice switch places in the sentence in a passive voice ( I; the room - the room; (by) me).
In the given sentence the used tense is present continuous and the appropriate form of the verb to be for that tense in passive voice is is being.

Which underlined word in the paragraph has a negative association?
Last time we went sailing, we found a small offshore island. We docked our boat near a remote
seaside cabin and explored the area. While we walked, we collected sea shells and watched
for stranded dolphins and whales. After a few hours, we began to sail home from that distant
place.
distant
stranded
offshore
remote
Answer:stranded
Explanation:
Stranded
The underlined word in the paragraph that has a negative association is stranded. Thus, option 'B' is the correct option.
How stranded is an adjective?Stranded means left without the means to move from somewhere. A noun or noun phrase is described with an adjective. Its semantic function is to modify the information the noun provides. Although traditionally they were grouped alongside nouns, adjectives were formerly regarded as one of the primary components of speech in the English language. Then, the terms we now refer to as nouns were referred to as substantive nouns.
Formerly used in English but now defunct are the words noun substantive and noun adjective. An adjective may follow a comparable noun on a postpositive basis or precede it on a prepositive basis, depending on the language. An adjective's pre- or post-position can be affected by structural, contextual, and stylistic factors in a particular instance of its occurrence.
