How do the dogs described in this article support the point that Grandin makes in "How Dogs Make Us Human"?

Answers

Hello. You did not inform the article to which the question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

"Animals Make Us Human" is a text written by Temple Grandin, where we can see how animals have sensations and feelings as similar as ours, that is, animals feel happiness, sadness, fear, among others. This allows them to identify very intensely with humans, especially dogs that can teach us valuable lessons. In this case, to answer your question, you should read your article and look for arguments that show how we can learn from dogs, that is, you should look for arguments that show the dogs involved in inspiring and educational moments and activities. These arguments must be capable of justifying Grandin's position in relation to animals.

Which is the thesis statement in this introductory paragraph?
Would you pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for a home that was
falling apart? Without the benefit of a qualified home inspector, many
people do just that. Home inspectors check the condition of the home,
including the foundation, roof, plumbing, and electrical systems,
Though home inspections can be expensive, it is worth it to know if the
roof is leaking or there's a problem with the pipes in the basement
before you purchase the home. Because a home is often the largest
single investment a person will make in his or her lifetime, the
importance of a proper home inspection cannot be overstated.

What makes Tea Cake finally “snap”? What happens as a result?

Answers

Answer:

The one that causes Tea Cake to finally "snap" is the fact that Mrs. Turner, a co-owner of a coffee shop, would introduce his wife to her white son, since she considered it unacceptable that a Caucasian woman was with a black man, when Tea Cake heard the conversation, beat his wife severely, which generated the separation of the couple, many thought that the rage expressed by Tea Cake was product of Hydrophobia, a disease from which he died shortly after.

Explanation:

What made the Tea Cake “snap” was the jealousy he felt towards his wife.

We can arrive at this answer because:

Tea Cake was filled with rage when he saw that Mrs. Turner was introducing a man to his wife.He found this unacceptable and completely lost control, reaching the point of assaulting his wife and threatening her life.In addition to the jealousy, he felt diminished as he is a black man and his wife was being introduced to a white man.

Tea Cake's reaction is vastly over the top and reflects his explosive and passionate personality.

An author claims that "zoos do more good than harm." The author provides the following as support for the claim: In 2012, the well-respected research firm Martin and Associates conducted a study on the request of animal rights activists. The published report was overwhelmingly one-sided. Head researcher Adeline Moreno summed up the results by stating, "The importance of zoos cannot be overstated. The economic and educational benefits for humans are great. The protection and preservation of endangered species is even greater." Which choice best describes the support the author provides? (5 points) a It is effective support for the claim. b It is ineffective support because it does not help prove the claim. c It is ineffective support because it presents opinion rather than fact. d It is ineffective support because it provides no source for the information.

Answers

Answer:

It is ineffective support because it does not help prove the claim.

His claim is that they do more harm than good, but he uses a one sided study that states zoos are great for learning and species preservation.
