What are the pros and cons of having a guinea pig as a pet?
Answer + Explanation:
The Pros of Guinea Pigs as Pets
1. They’re easier to take care of than other pets such as dogs and cats
A dog needs a lot of attention and time and must be taken on daily walks. They also need more space which is especially true for large breeds. Cats have a similar disposition. Both animals have aggressive breeds and are picky eaters.
2. They don’t take up much space
Guinea pigs are quite small and their cage can fit comfortably into the corner of a room in the house. Cleaning up after them is also a breeze as their droppings are small and can be easily removed. Due to their small size, transporting them to a new location is hassle-free. They keep themselves clean too with daily grooming.
3. They’re more of a “passive pet” rather than a “constantly-by-your-side” pet
If that’s the kind of pet you want, they’re perfect for the role. Guinea pigs fulfill a companion role that’s sort of a mixture of a cat’s laid-back, affectionate nature and the decorative capabilities of fish. They aren’t handled for more than a few hours a day and can’t really be “played-with” like other companion pets.
4. They’re relatively quiet compared to other pets
While a dog owner’s neighbor might be kept up by nighttime barking, the guinea pig owner has no such issues. Guinea pigs can sometimes be noisy but the volume of their squeals isn’t that high.
5. They cost less and are cheaper to maintain than other pets
Think of the large price tags that come with purebred dogs, cats, and even some fish. Guinea pigs are very affordable, their food doesn’t cost much, and accessories such as toys and trinkets are widely available. In fact, they also eat fruits and veggies so you’ll definitely be sharing for human food with them from to time.
6. They show some degree of affection and are naturally social
Guinea pigs live in herds and are grazing animals. They aren’t completely emotionless like turtles are, but at the same time, they aren’t as wildly passionate as dogs. They are sweet and interactive to a certain extent.
6. They’re good pets of choice for older children
Young children do not have the fine muscle strength to firmly hold a guinea pig and they can get seriously injured if they drop from an unsecured location.
7. They live longer than other rodents
While hamsters and gerbils only live for about 2 – 4 years on the average, guinea pigs enjoy a nice 4 to 5-year average lifespan; with some living up to 8 years. That’s pretty long for a small pet.
8. They’re gentle and aren’t dangerous
It is very rare for a guinea pig to bite, unlike hamsters, gerbils, and most especially rats – all of whom have been known to bite their owners for various reasons. The only times when a guinea pig will bite is almost always by accident.
9. They don’t destroy things
While other pets have destructive tendencies, making it a hassle for you to clean up their living area and purchase new toys, guinea pigs exhibit no such behaviors. They are kind, sweet, and mostly have a calm and collected demeanor.
The Cons of Guinea Pigs as Pets
They don’t live as long as other pets.
There’s almost no comparison when putting dog, cat, and guinea pig lifespans side-by-side. Dogs can grow alongside a human and one of the greatest joys is when a puppy can accompany a baby through the milestones of his/her years all the way to adulthood.
Guinea pigs, unfortunately, will not be able to accomplish such a feat, but at least they do live longer than other rodents.
They’re easily injured.
Guinea pigs aren’t the hardiest or strongest pet available on the market. Their bones are fragile and not very flexible and they can get hurt easily. This is the reason why it’s not recommended to allow small children to play with them.
It can take a long time to train them.
Guinea pigs can be trained to follow commands and even to recognize your voice but the time it takes can range from a few weeks to a few months. In fact, you’ll never know how long it will take an individual guinea pig to complete training. They each have their own unique personality, so let’s just say it’s for you to find out.
There’s a higher price for veterinary checkups, diagnoses, and medicines.
Guinea pigs are classified as “exotic” pets; which means that vets charge a higher fee for standard services. Even the simple task of finding a vet who’s trained to handle exotic animals is difficult in itself.
Local vets may not be qualified to handle guinea pigs and you might have to travel far to locate one. Many vets who are not trained to handle exotic animals are not familiar with all possible health issues and sometimes, it takes multiple diagnoses to finally find the cure.
Guinea pigs can’t create their own Vitamin C.
This isn’t a problem for most other pets but for guinea pigs, it means that you’ll have to specifically buy Vitamin C supplements or feed vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables every day. They primarily only eat hay and drink water, so special concessions must be made in regards to their diet.
Answer:
pros: Fun and Lovable. Guinea pigs are endearing pets who rarely bite and who like to be held
cons: Guinea pigs need exercise daily whether running around the room or in a safe pen outdoors and they must be closely supervised the entire time

Images and captions are text features which often appear in articles. Writing in complete sentences, explain how images and captions can help you understand the main idea.
Answer:
Images and captions may be simple add on text features, but they are very important. They can help you understand the main idea because often times visual representations can help a reader when trying to come up with a picture in their head of what the text is about. The general idea is that the pictures can help a reader see something more clearly. Pictures may also highlight some of the main ideas of the text, which helps the reader pay more attention the main idea instead of little details that may not be as important.

Even though the scope of American literature continued to broaden in the second half of the twentieth
century, the consistency of ideas and themes could be found in_________.
America's writing Style
America's core values
America's literary heritage
America's leadership
Answer:
America´s literary heritage
Explanation:
From the Colonial Period (17th century) and Early National Period to the Romantic Period (1830- 1870) to Realism and Naturalism (1870-1910) to the Modernist Period (1910-1945), they all contributed in some way or another to the Contemporary Period in literature, that reflected the social upheaval that acompanied the contemporary and all the other socio-political periods of America.
There is no such thing as a typical American writing style.
The core values (like the natural rights of people) do play a significant role but they don´t determine American literature.
America´s leadership or hegemony is a fact but it doesn´t make its literature consistent.

Read the excerpt from "The Lady Maid's Bell."
But that wasn’t the only queer thing in the house. The very next day I found out that Mrs. Brympton had no nurse; and then I asked Agnes about the woman I had seen in the passage the afternoon before. Agnes said she had seen no one, and I saw that she thought I was dreaming. To be sure, it was dusk when we went down the passage, and she had excused herself for not bringing a light; but I had seen the woman plain enough to know her again if we should meet. I decided that she must have been a friend of the cook’s, or of one of the other women servants: perhaps she had come down from town for a night’s visit, and the servants wanted it kept secret. Some ladies are very stiff about having their servants’ friends in the house overnight. At any rate, I made up my mind to ask no more questions.
How does this excerpt support the idea that the story is told by an unreliable narrator?
A) The narrator does not trust what she has seen.

C) The narrator wants to meet the servants’ visiting friends.

Melanie uses 9.4 pints of white paint and blue paint to paint her bedroom walls. 4 5 of this amount is white paint, and the rest is blue paint. How many pints of blue paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?
Answer:
She used 4.9 pints of blue paint.
Explanation:
The total amount of paint that Melanie used is 9.4 pints (white and blue).
Blue Paint + White Paint = 9.4 pints.
However, we know that 4.5 of the total amount is white, thus, we can substitute in the expression we just wrote earlier:
Blue Paint + 4.5 = 9.4 pints
Blue Paint = 9.4 pints - 4.5 pints
Blue Paint= 4.9 pints.
Therefore, she used 4.9 pints of blue paint for her bedroom walls.

How does reading the second passage help the reader
better understand the first passage?
Read the passage from The Lion, the Witch, and the
Wardrobe.
They were sent to the house of an old Professor who lived in
the heart of the country, ten miles from the nearest railway
station and two miles from the nearest post office. He had r5
wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper
called Mrs. Macready and three servants.
- The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,
C.S. Lewis
It explains why people like the Professor were chosen to
look after evacuated children.
It reveals that many of the evacuated children built strong
friendships with their hosts.
It shows the reader why the Professor did not want to
have children of his own.
It suggests that sending children to small farms was safer
than keeping them in the cities.
Now read the passage from "Children of the W
Evacuation."
As there was such pressure on rural households to take
evacuees, some children were billeted with childless couples
and for many a lifelong relationship ensued. These are the
good news stories that we don't hear enough about.

Answer:
It reveals that many of the evacuated children built strong friendships with their hosts.
Explanation:
In the first paragraph of this example, we learn about the way in which the Pevensie children were taken to the countryside in the book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, from the saga The Chronicles of Narnia. We learn that these children were sent to a large house with a professor who had no family.
The second paragraph allows us to understand this situation better, as it tells us that children were often sent to families who had no children. This contributed to the development of a close relationship between the people involved.
By reading the second paragraph, we are more likely to understand how these relationships developed, and we might be more inclined to believe that such a relationship is possible between the Pevensie children and the professor.

From October to January, the daily high temperature in Anchorage, Alaska drops an average of 1/3 degree per day. On October 1st, the temperature was 42º F. Write and solve an equation to predict how long it will take the temperature to reach 22º F. Show all work on your work page.
Answer:
Aproximately two months
Explanation:
It takes 60 days to drop 20 degrees F. (42 - 22), taking in account that, when the temperature drops one third of a degree every day, it takes 3 days to drop on degree. 3 times 20 = 60. On the first of december it should have reached 22 degrees F.
