select the noun clause in each sentence. Whatever you do make sure you're home on time. Janice couldn't decide what she should m
Bond [772]

Answer: The noun clause in the first sentence is "Whatever you do", while the noun clause in the second sentence is "what she should major in at college".

Explanation: A noun clause is a dependent clause, that is to say a clause that does not express a full thought, which functions as a noun. Moreover, a noun clause is generally introduced by a relative pronoun. In the first sentence<u>, the noun clause is "Whatever you do" and it is functioning as the subject of the sentence, while in the second sentence, the noun clause is "what she should major in at college" and it is performing the function of direct object. </u>Therefore, both of them are acting as nouns.

Read the excerpt from "Save the Coral Reefs.”
svetoff [14.1K]
<span>Q1: The ability of an ecosystem to recover from damage.
In the text, it says "the resiliency of the reefs". From this we know that resiliency is a trait that the reefs have. In the next sentence, we see the context clues that define resiliency when it states "reefs bounce back-even flourish." When someone or something bounces back it recovers and returns to it's previous state.

Q2: to inform readers about how the coral reefs are being destroyed AND to convince readers that practices that destroy coral reefs must be stopped.
It is a "Check All That Apply" so more than one answer can be chosen. The passage title is "Save the Coral Reefs" and the selection ends with the sentence "More can be done now to help the coral reefs bounce back". These clues tell the reader that the author's purpose is to save the reefs. In order to do this the author needs to first explain how the reefs are being destroyed. Then convince readers to save the reefs by stopping the practices that destroy them.

Q3: "could help save" and "unsubstantiated risks".
It is important to pay attention to the question here. It is asking for phrases that support safety - not necessarily nutrition. A pixie stick is safe to eat, but not nutritious. The phrase "could help save" supports the idea that it is safe because it is being defined as possibly life and eye-saving. "Unsubstantiated risks" also shows safety because it state that any risks have not been proven and are therefore unfounded. Some of the other phrases such as "more vitamin A" and "more nutritious" support the argument that the food is healthier but are not used to specifically explain how safe it is.</span>

Visualization and categorization work well for visual learners. Is this a technique you think benefits you as a learner? Why or
vodomira [7]

Answer:

This technique benefits me as a learner as it helps me to visualise my method and approach to solving a problem before I go about solving it. This is pertinent especially in problem based subjects like mathematics. In learning, this is also helpful in helping me to internalise the information gathered, for example, being able to mentally link the information together on a concept map in your head or on paper also helps in retaining information. This concept of visualisation and categorisation is similar to the thinking process of computational thinking which involves breaking down the problem and solving it abstractly.

I do not agree that this only works for visual learners. While visual learners tend to be more inclined to this method of processing in their minds or on paper, I feel that everyone uses this method to a certain extent although through a different methodology or thought process.
