Lightening is a powerful force in nature.
Using evidence from both articles, construct a well-organized informational essay that explains why lightning’s power should be respected.
Your essay should include evidence from both “A Lightning Primer” and “Flash Facts About Lightning.”
Answer:
According to NASA Lightning, the thunderbolt from mythology, has long been feared as an atmospheric flash of supernatural origins: the great weapon of the gods. The Greeks both marveled and feared lightning as it was hurled by Zeus. For the Vikings, lightning was produced by Thor as his hammer struck an anvil while riding his chariot across the clouds. In the East, early statues of Buddha show him carrying a thunderbolt with arrows at each end. Native American tribes in North America believed that lightning was due to the flashing feathers of a mystical bird whose flapping wings produced the sound of thunder.
Facts about Lightning
The speed of lightning
While the flashes we see as a result of a lightning strike travel at the speed of light (670,000,000 mph) an actual lightning strike travels at a comparatively gentle 270,000 mph.
This means it would take about 55 minutes to travel to the moon, or around 1.5 seconds to get from London to Bristol.
2. When lightning strikes a beach
When lightning strikes sand or sandy soil, it fuses together the grains to create a small glass-like tube known as a fulgurite.
They are not only prized by collectors, they are also of great scientific value in demonstrating past occurrence of lightning storms.
3. The most lightning-struck location in the world
Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela is the place on Earth that receives the most lightning strikes. Massive thunderstorms occur on 140-160 nights per year with an average of 28 lightning strikes per minute lasting up to 10 hours at a time.
That's as many as 40,000 lightning strikes in one night!
4. Helicopters cause lightning
Recent research from the Met Office revealed that helicopters can cause an isolated lightning strike. While flying, the helicopter acquires a negative charge, so if it flies close to an area that is positively charged (e.g. hail or the base of a cumulonimbus cloud) it can trigger a lightning strike.
5. 1,400,000,000 strikes every year
Lightning is one of nature's most recurrent and common spectacles. Around the world, there are over 3,000,000 flashes every day.
That's around 44 strikes every second.
6. Lightning destroys trees
Trees can often be destroyed by lightning strikes. When lightning hits a tree, it usually travels just below the tree's bark where there is a layer of sap and water.
This layer becomes instantly heated and expands causing the bark to be blasted off the tree and sometimes splitting the wood.
7. But it can help plants grow
While nitrogen is in the air all around us, for plants to be able to absorb it (a process vital for their growth) they rely on a process called Nitrogen fixation.
Although much of this process is done by bacteria and algae, the extreme heat of a lightning strike causes nitrogen to bond with oxygen to create nitrogen oxides which combine with moisture in the air to fall as rain and water plants with nitrate-rich water.
8. The width of a thumb and hotter than the sun
While the intensity of a lightning strike can make them appear as thick bolts across the sky, the actual width of a lightning bolt is only about 2-3 cm. The average length of a lightning bolt is about 2-3 miles.
The charge carried down this small channel is so intense that the temperature of the lightning reaches 30,000 °C - that's five times hotter than the surface of the Sun.
9. Volcanic lightning
While lightning storms are impressive in their own right, they don't quite compare to the spectacle when volcanic eruptions trigger lightning strikes.
When an eruption occurs, earth and ash are thrown into the air in a giant plume, colliding to create an electrical charge. In the same way as normal lightning, the imbalance between the plume's electrical charge and the charge in the atmosphere leads to lightning strikes.
10. Counting lightning
To tell how far away a thunderstorm is, simply count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the boom of thunder that follows. Divide this number by five and this tells you how many miles away you are from the storm (or divide by three for the distance in kilometres).

PLEASE HELP-
The names of five (5) fiction sub-genres and a brief description of each (in your own words)
A list of any special features or characteristics of each fiction sub-genres
At least 1 example of a story or book that fits into each fiction sub-genre and why it is an example of that specific fiction sub-genre.
Thank you so much.
Answer:
1. Realistic Fiction, made up stories that could potentially be done in real life. Example, "seven husbands of evelyn hugo", a story about a female celebrity that have married seven husbands throughout her life, and all the ups and downs that happen troughout her relationships.
2.Fanasty Fiction, made up stories that include unrealistic and otherworldly events and characters. Example, the "Percy Jackson" series, a novel series about a boy that is a demigod child of Poseidon, going through adventures so solve problems in a prophecy. It includes many fictional characters like greek gods, monsters, etc..
3.Historical Fiction, similar to realistic fiction, historical fiction are made up stories that fit into a time in history, sometimes with an added bit of fantasy. Example "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry," follows an African american family dealing with discrimination in the 1960s.
4.Psychological Horror- Fiction, a story that typically follows a characters mind undoes it self, and the character starts losing their self conscious and start doing what their minds believe to be right, typically in a bad way. Example, "American Psycho" (a good novel, with a film adaptation thats actually decent, this just my personal opinion btw), follows the character that is a upperclass man in NY by day, and a vicious killer by night. He starts losing his self control, and starts doing the worse, (too innapropiate to list)
5. Rom-com fictions, a story that follows a character trying to seek love, or solve relationship problems throughout the book, with added twists of humor. Example, "To All the Boys Ive Loved Before" follows a teenager, Lara Jean, who wrote secret love letters to her crushes as a young girl. Later her younger sister, Kitty finds the letter and distributes them out to all her previous crushes.

Answer: ok A i think
Explanation: hope it help and is right good day
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
Infinitives as Nouns
Remember that a noun is a person, place, or thing. When an infinitive is used as the subject or direct object in a sentence, it functions as a noun.
The sentence’s subject performs the verb, while the sentence’s direct object receives the verb.
Example 1:
I love to sleep.
In this sentence, the verb is “love.”
Who or what receives the action of being loved? The infinitive “to sleep.”
This makes “to sleep” the direct object of the sentence.
In this case, the infinitive functions as a noun that expresses an opinion. It could be replaced with a person, place, or thing, as in, “I love pizza.”

While on a business trip, I wrote a report using the hotel's courtesy computer. Saving the first draft on the hard drive, I named it open double quote
Boston
Report D1.close double quote
I wrote several pages of ideas, and then I left to meet a client for lunch. On returning to the hotel, I continued working on the report until I completed the first draft. Several new ideas came to me at dinner, so afterward, I added them to my first draft, saved the new one as open double quote
Boston
Report D2,close double quote
and wrote continuously until I had completed the report. I quickly skimmed through it and then saved it. The hotel's printer was broken, but having a printout didn't matter because I could submit it by e-mail to my manager. The next day, I received a reply saying that although my data were good, the report could have been better organized. My manager also said there were several sentence fragments and spelling errors, and the page numbering was way off. I was so disappointed.
The writer chose to name the first draft open double quote
Boston
Report D1close double quote
instead of simply open double quote
Report

A.
"D1" will remind the writer that he or she was writing on the first day of the business trip.
B.

Explanation:
Answer:
Hannah might be named after Aunt Eva's Dead Friend to do with honoring her passing. Chaya might be important in saving others in the story as Hannah gets transported to this "different world" into becoming a "different person." As Chaya means "life" this can be used in an iconic way in the story.

Explanation:
Petra
(1) There are many examples of grand architecture in the world. (2) Some of the most impressive are buildings of the ancient city called Petra in Jordan. (3) Petra is the Greek word for "rock." (4) The early inhabitants of Petra—the Nabataeans—did not use wood or brick to make the structures, but instead, they carved them right out of the desert sandstone cliffs.
(5) Two thousand years ago, Petra was an important center of activity where caravans of travelers would pass through on their way to trade goods in other regions. (6) Their power and riches can still be seen today in the remains of their city.
(7) Although Petra was built in a rugged, dry desert, the Nabataeans made wise plans for collecting and storing water. (8) This water system was made of cisterns, or reservoirs, that held water and channels that directed water from one place to another.
(9) After thriving for about 1,000 years, Petra began to decline. (10) The trade routes that had once gone through the city were changed to go toward the sea. (11) In addition, an earthquake devastated the area. (12) The ruins of the city were rediscovered in the 1800s by a European traveler who disguised himself as a local Bedouin, or local Middle Eastern person, to find the remote location.
(13) Today, modern travelers can visit Petra and see its majesty in person; tours are available by foot, donkey, or camel. (14) Much of Petra remains to be seen; archaeologists have uncovered only 15 percent of it. (15) The rest of this city is still "lost" or underground.
Where would the following sentence best fit in the passage?
Centuries after its decline, no one knew it had existed.
A.
after sentence 4
B.
after sentence 2
C.
after sentence 13
D.
after sentence 11

I can help to compare and contrast
The difference between the two poems is that the first poem speaks about positive thinking and attributes, that omclude creativity and observation. It illustrates hope to the readers. While the other poem speaks about the truth in the future about people will die sooner or later. The poet talks we should not give into death but avoid it. The comparison between these two poems is about they both speak about hope, future, and the world around and how we react to the world. Hope this helps for you.
