Answer:
The first sentence contains a simile while the second sentence has a metaphor.
Explanation:
Simile and metaphor are figures of speech that compare different things to each other with the purpose of vividly describing a similar characteristic between them. The difference between both figures of speech is that the simile makes the comparison by using words such as "like" or "as". The metaphor, on the other hand, does not use such words. Study the examples below to better visualize the difference:
Simile: Your eyes are like stars.
Metaphor: Your eyes are stars.
In both of the sentences above, someone's eyes are being compared to stars, which probably means they are big and bright. However, the first sentence relies on the word "like" to establish the comparison, therefore constituting a simile. The second sentence does not, forming a metaphor.
Having that in mind:
"I felt as if invisible hands were holding me, and I made frantic efforts to free myself." - We have a simile here. The speaker uses "as if" to compare her feeling to hands holding her. She probably had a feeling of being restrained.
"My mother's only ray of hope came from Dickens's 'American Notes." - No one literally has a ray of hope. There is no such thing in the natural world. However, a ray is something the shines, that makes a dark place brighter. We can attribute such idea to the feeling of hope - it makes dark and difficult situations look brighter, better. Since there are no words such as "like" or "as", what we have here is a metaphor.
Answer:
Similes include "like" and/or "as". While a metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. So in this case the first one would be "simile" and the second would be "as".

"Life was simple. Find food, scout the countryside, try to make new things and sleep. Life was simple." Using the quote above, describe how life is simple and yet not for Mark. Write 3-5 complete sentences.In transall Saga
Answer: It isn't.
Explanation: This form of life can be described as "simple" yet the details aren't simple at all. Finding food isn't always the easiest task, scouting the countryside takes time and effort, and making new things take materials and creativity. The author makes it out to be so easy but what lies within is genuine hard labor that takes a lot of effort to complete.

In "Heart of Darkness" what is the French man of war doing and why does Marlow refer to it as insanity?
Answer:
The French steamer takes Marlow along the coast of Africa, stopping periodically to land soldiers and customshouse officers. Marlow finds his idleness vexing, and the trip seems vaguely nightmarish to him. At one point, they come across a French man-of-war shelling an apparently uninhabited forested stretch of coast. They finally arrive at the mouth of the Congo River, where Marlow boards another steamship bound for a point thirty miles upriver. The captain of the ship, a young Swede, recognizes Marlow as a seaman and invites him on the bridge. The Swede criticizes the colonial officials and tells Marlow about another Swede who recently hanged himself on his way into the interior.

which set of cell organelles are involved in cell division
1.Lysosome and nucleus
2.Golgi bodies and nucleus
3.Centrosome and nucleus
4.Mitochondria and nucleus
Answer:
4
Explanation:
Mitochondria produce the energy required to perform processes such as cell division, growth, and cell death. This in itself shows that the nucleus plays an important part in cell division and in directing the development of the fertilized egg into an embryo. The nucleus is, of course, required for cell division, but it also determines the type of structure which the cell eventually develops into.

According to the article, what is one reason why scientist criticized ocean Ramsey for her actions near a great white shark?
Answer:
One reason why other scientists criticized Ocean Ramsey was that they felt she was promoting through social media that it is okay to swim with the shark and it was irresponsible.
Explanation:
A deep sea diver Ocean Ramsey came in extremely close proximity with a great white shark in the Pacific Ocean and was even daring enough to touch the shark in a viral video she posted on her Instagram.
She described the shark which she called Deep Blue as mellow and beautiful and the estimated length is 20 feet and weighing about 6,000 pounds while believed to be pregnant.
According to Michael Dormier, who is the founding director of the Marine Conservation Science Institute was of the opinion that of all the breeds of sharks that were not dangerous, Ocean Blue had to pose and touch the great white shark and also indirectly let people on social media feel that is safe and okay to be in close contact with such a dangerous sea creature.

Lens Quotation: "Character is what you are in the dark." -Dwight Lyman Moody
Answer:
What Dwight means to imply here is that your personal integrity is dependent entirely on what you do when you think no one is watching. How strong is your moral compass? Now I can think of a few books this quote would apply to, Wuthering Heights- or Scorpions. Scorpions from Walter Dean Meyers is about gang violence and the sort. So there's a lot of morality talk there. The prompt wants you to analyze a book you've read with Dwight's words in mind. You're looking for a book that has character integrity as a theme. Honesty, Deception, those kinds of conflicting themes.
Explanation:
Answer: There are many books in which I could pull from, but the best example would be The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. Tolkien throws the reader into a mystical world set in Middle Earth. We are introduced with a Hobbit who enjoys a quaint simple life. Like many Hobbits, Bilbo Baggins does not like adventures, as it is not in their "nature." But Gandalf comes by to prove otherwise. During the novel, Bilbo is recruited by Gandalf to help a pack of Dwarves reclaim their lost home. When Bilbo accepted this journey, we are already seeing Bilbo's true colors coming through. Bilbo scurries along to meet the rest of his party as the entirety of Bag End shuns him. A great example of Bilbo's character in the dark is when he is literally in the dark. His quick thoughts are what saves him from being Gollum's next meal when he falls into his cave. Bilbo saved his own life that day because of his witty puzzles and quick actions against Gollum. At heart, Bilbo is an adventurer, just like the Took side of his family. With the help of a couple of new friends, Bilbo was able to show his "true character in the dark" to the world.
