(GIVING BRAINLYIST) Read Part Two of Article A on sea otters.

Sea otters are one of few tool-using mammals. They enjoy a diet of seafood, including sea urchins, mussels, clams, sea snails, and crabs. Sea otters will use rocks to break open their food. The rock acts as an anvil to crack open the shell. After diving down to find their food, sea otters hold the shells against their stomachs as they break them open. Sea otters have pouches of loose skin under each of their forelegs. This is where they keep their rock tool while not feeding. Sea otters are quite smart and will use other objects to help them open the shells of their prey. These include parts of the shell itself, driftwood, man-made objects, or even another shellfish. The use of seaweed as an anchor is another example of the sea otter using tools in its daily life.

Sea otters are well suited to live in the cold waters of the ocean. Both their ears and nostrils can close while diving. A sea otter's claws and teeth are also perfectly suited to their diet. Additionally, these furry creatures have a loose skeleton, which allows them to be very flexible when swimming and grooming. Their lungs are two-and-a-half times bigger than a similarly sized land mammal, which gives them the buoyancy needed to float on their backs.

Sea otters display many unique physical features and behaviors that make them extremely interesting animals. They play and interact with one another, showing a high level of intelligence. Both scientists and wildlife enthusiasts enjoy observing them. Perhaps you'll be lucky enough to spot some of these fun, furry creatures along the shores of the Northern Pacific or, at the very least, at your local zoo.

How does the author's point of view that sea otters are smart affect the type of details included in the article?

The author describes the different tools sea otters find and use to survive.
The author explains that most sea otters have an enormous lung capacity.
The author explains the reason sea otters float on their backs most of the day.
The author includes facts about the number of sea otters that perform at zoos.

According to "Robots Are Cool, but AI is the Future," how does the use of robots affect humans?

Robots follow instructions to perform everyday tasks for humans, such as vacuuming.

Robots can make life easier for humans because they can research and problem solve.

Robots can translate foreign languages, making it easier for people from different countries to communicate.

Exploring Text Structure and Relationships of Ideas - Part 5

In the essay you wrote during this lesson, you tied evidence to answer this question: Were these explorers mainly looking for personal gain or trying to advance people’s knowledge of the world?
For this assessment, you are going to narrow your focus. You will write two or three paragraphs answering this question: Did the search for wealth lead to the exploration of the Americas?
To answer this question, you will have to revisit the expeditions of Cortés, Pizarro, and Orellana. However, you will need to look at the information in these sections of the text in a new way. You will need to connect a specific cause (the search of wealth) with a specific effect (the exploration of the Americas).
To make the link from that cause to that effect, you will have to build a bridge of evidence. Use details and additional evidence from pp. 12–19 in the text to create a new Cause-and-Effect Chart. Give the chart the title Causes and Effects of Exploration of the Americas. As before, put causes in the boxes on the left. On the right, write the effect—the exploration of the Americas. Use your graphic organizer as a guide to write your paragraphs.
Plan this opinion piece like you did on the earlier one. Use the Writing Planner worksheet to plan. Be sure to include:
A strong introduction that presents your opinion on the issue,
Strong, well-organized reasons and plenty of good evidence to support them,
Transitions linking evidence,
A conclusion that effectively summarizes the information you have explained,
If you help thanks so much need it badly.

Read the passage then answer the quiestion down below.

Switched-On Bach is a musical album recorded by Wendy Carlos in 1968. As one might expect, the album features selections written by the famous 18th-century composer, Johann Sebastian Bach. Yet, Switched-On Bach is unlike any classical album that came before it. Carlos performed Bach's songs using electronic synthesizers designed by Robert Moog. These synthesizers were among the first electronic instruments used in popular music. Because of its original sound, Switched-On Bach became one of the first classical albums to sell 500,000 copies. It also won three Grammies.

Despite its commercial success, the album received a mixed reaction when it was first released. Some critics felt that it ruined Bach's music. Many artists, meanwhile, were excited by the freshness of the strange new electronic sound. Suddenly, everyone wanted to use Robert Moog's synthesizers on their next records.


Which of the following most accurately paraphrases what is written about the album Switched-On Bach in this passage?

A.

Because of its original sound, Switched-On Bach became one of the first classical albums to sell 500,000 copies. It also won three Grammies.

B.

Switched-On Bach was recorded by Wendy Carlos in 1968. It was extremely popular and won three Grammies.

C.

Switched-On Bach features Moog synthesizers, which were new at the time of release. A number of critics did not like the album. However, it sold half a million copies and influenced other artists.

D.

The synthesizers were designed by Robert Moog, but many critics felt that these instruments ruined Bach's music. Moog recorded many more albums. Eventually, people started to like the fresh sound.

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
"Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee
Respite—respite and nepenthe, from thy memories of Lenore;
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!"
Quoth the Raven "Nevermore."
