Read the following excerpt from the article “Icebergs,” which was posted online by the United States Coast Guard. As you read, consider how some common words used in science texts have multiple meanings.

~Much has been written about bottle-green icebergs that are sometimes seen in the Antarctic. Several mechanisms have been proposed, but the most likely explanation for the green color is the freezing of organic-rich seawater to the underwater part of the ice shelf from which the iceberg calved. The green ice is exposed after an iceberg breaks free of the shelf and rolls over.~

What does the word shelf mean in this excerpt?

1) a green iceberg
2) part of glacial ice
3) part of an iceberg

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
3. Part of an iceberg

Explanation: The green ice is what is exposed after breaking free, and no where is glacial ice mentioned. Therefore, 3 is correct.
Answer 2

Answer: 2 Part of glacial ice

Explanation: def not 1 but it has to be 2

scenairo 1: Sid comes to school every day and disrupts. Some of his referrals were for cursing at teachers, starting verbal altercations, throwing things at other students. He also yrllls down the classmates were unable to focus when he's around. The school documents the behavior and works to get the student removed. At one of the last meeting his mother insisted he had the right to a free public withdrawn from the school.

is sid's right to a free public education more important than the rights of the teachers and other students?

The boys miss their flight to Ohio and miss the championship game.

is this high school student's right to freedom of speech more important than the rights of this teammates?

how is the team captain infringing on the rights of others ?

are the teams constitutional rights are being taken away?

Answers

Answer:

1. No his rights are not being taken

2. the team captain is in the wrong and his teammates have a grater right to freedom of speech

Explanation:

In scenario 1, Sid's right to a free public education is not more important than the rights of the teachers and other students to a safe and orderly learning environment. Sid's behavior is infringing on the rights of others by disrupting the class and making it difficult for them to learn. It is possible that his constitutional rights are being violated if the school is removing him from school without due process.

In scenario 2, the high school student's right to freedom of speech is not more important than the rights of his teammates to travel safely and participate in the championship game. The team captain's joke about a bomb infringed on the rights of others by causing them to miss their flight and potentially causing fear or anxiety among the other passengers and airport staff. It is possible that the team's constitutional rights were violated if the TSA agent detained them without probable cause.

As soon as one person started rebelling, the government would punish them, and another rebel is gone.

Explain the meaning of the term caste in Indian history.

Answers

Answer:The four primary castes are Brahmin, the priests; Kshatriya, warriors and nobility; Vaisya, farmers, traders, and artisans; and Shudra, tenant farmers and servants. Some people were born outside of (and below) the caste system; they were called "untouchables" or Dalits—"the crushed ones."

A defining feature of Hinduism, caste encompasses a complex ordering of social groups on the basis of ritual purity. A person is considering a member of the caste into which he/she is born and remains within the castle until death, although the particular ranking of that caste may vary among regions and over time.

What was the Great act referred to by Senator Sumner?

Answers

The "great act" referred to by Senator Sumner in this excerpt is "The addition of Hiram Rhodes Revels to the U.S. Senate."

What Senator Charles Sumter said in 1870 was the following: "All men are created equal, says the great Declaration and now a great act attests this verity. Today we make the Declaration a reality. ... The Declaration was only half established by Independence. The greatest duty remained behind. In assuring the equal rights of all we complete the work."

Hiram Revels became the first African American to enter the Senate of the United States Congress when the Republicans supported him on February 25, 1870.

2)In what ways have the amendments failed to actually offer equality? ( Think outside the box-think about what you KNOW about racial struggles in the US from then to NOW!)

Answers

Answer:

When a State ratifies a proposed amendment, it sends the Archivist an original or certified copy of the State action, which is immediately conveyed to the Director of the Federal Register. A proposed amendment becomes part of the Constitution as soon as it is ratified by three-fourths of the States (38 of 50 States).

What was one reason why the equal rights amendment failed? Fewer women wanted to enter the workforce by the 1970s. Only seven states ratified the amendment in the allotted time. Many people feared potential unintended effects of the amendment because it was vaguely worded.
