It is hard for scientists to know how many West Indian manatees there are. They estimate between 2,000 to 5,000. The West Indian manatee has been listed as an endangered species. This means that the population is so low that the West Indian manatee is in danger of becoming extinct. Many die because of accidents with ships or other human causes, such as pollution. Federal and state laws protect the manatee. Scientists are working to find ways to help the manatee survive.

The Empire That Vanished
(1) Using archaeological studies, and Greek writings, historians now know much
more than ever before about the mysterious group of people called the Scythians. (2)
Historians have long known that they were nomadic, barbaric horsemen and a powerful force in Europe for about 400 years. (3) These people ruled a vast area of land for several centurys and then seemed to have vanished completely. (4) Artifacts found in the territory that the Scythians controlled have given clues about how they lived and what things they valued. (5) However, no evidence has been found of a centralized community, nor do historians know what eventually happened to these people. (6) Historians believe that the Scythians originally came from Asia around 700
B.C., searching for better pastures and other peoples to conquer. (7) At its peak the
Scythian kingdom reached from the Danube river east across the Ukraine, the Crimea, and Russia. (8) Historians disagree about the size of the Scythian population. (9) Some think it numbered around half a million; other contend that it numbered only in the tens of thousands. (10) According to evidence uncovered by archaeologists, both the men and the women were feirce warriors. (11) They often traded their surplus goods and furs for crafted gold and fine ceramics made in Greece and central Asia. (12) The Scythians were especially proud of their adornments made of gold and precious stones. (13) They liked to show their wealth and even decorated their horses with gold. (14) Because of their fighting ability, the Scythians were able to acquire great riches. (15) Many of the Scythians’ gold ornaments found in Russia are formed into shapes that tell stories about their everyday life. (16) One elaborate gold neckpiece has figures of a resting calf, a boy milking a sheep, and bare-chested warriors with their weapons close at hand. (17) Into the image of a Scythian woman, another piece was worked, showing what the people looked like. (18) Archaeologists are still working trying to find out what happened to these people. (19) Although the Scythians left many of their treasure behind, researchers have found no trace of where these mighty warriors went.

Read the following selection:
The wheel stands out as an original engineering marvel, and one of the most famous inventions. This basic technology not only made it easier to travel, but also served as the base for a huge number of other innovative technologies. Yet, the wheel is not actually that old. The oldest known wheel is from Mesopotamia, around 3500 B.C. By that time, humans were already casting metal alloys, constructing canals and sailboats, and even designing complex musical instruments such as harps.
In fact, the main invention was not the wheel itself, which was likely invented the first time someone saw a rock rolling along, but the combination of a wheel and a fixed axle, which allows the wheel to be connected to a stable platform. Without the fixed axel, the wheel has only very limited utility.

Education has been the foundation of the modern age world because of the need to educate the youth of the world. Countries that live in poverty have no affordable education system or an education system at all. By making education free for everyone then society can move together as one instead of competing country against country to see which one is able to advance faster.

Answer:
Free education shouldn't be perceived as a right, either as an opportunity but an obligation. An obligation for the governments to their children and these are the three reasons that justify my point of view.
First of all, countries as entities need to guarantee their future, their functionality, their ability to survive. Therefore, if they want to subsist they should provide free education to their children. Because children are going to make decisions in the future. So, highly educated children would become highly educated adults that could execute the best decisions.
Second, education is related to success. Compare the most advanced educative systems in the world with the ones that don't support them. South Korea, Singapur, Finland, The Netherlands. Those countries have provided free education for their citizens and have achieved success by doing it. No more than fifty years ago south Korea and Singapur were countries in development. They are now important economic powers.
Third, free education is the solution to all the problems. Let's think about starvation, poverty, and poor technological conditions. They all can be solved by developing plans, strategies, ideas, and ideological revolution. Therefore, free education has to be a must for every country to ensure a solution to their problems.

The School Garden Debate
Answer:
all
Explanation:
Answer:
AHHH IM SO LATE BUT I DID THE PROJECT
HERES MY GRADE SO YALL BELIEVE ME
Anyways here you go (just re-word it)
The argument against school gardens was more persuasive than the other school garden argument. The argument against school gardens was more persuasive because some people see school gardens as taking time away from classroom academics. Research also does not provide any proof that spending time in a school garden can lead to higher graduation rates. For supporters argument it states that “Nearly every research study for the past 100 years has shown that for students to perform well after graduation, schools must teach to the whole child and provide whole-school experiences.” Personally, I don’t think that school gardens will affect students after they graduate. This is how against supporters was more convincible than the other opponents.

73. What instrument does Troy play?
74. What happens when Genesis’s dad does come home?
Answer:
which class?
Explanation:
(1) Four-day school weeks will be better for student’s health. (2) One article says “Some students feel the four-day school week provides an opportunity for extra rest and a less stressful environment. Being out of school one extra day per week allows students to relax or to be more productive.” (3) This shows how four-day school weeks would be better. (4) Students are super stressed out all the time because they have so much to do every single day. (5) A four-day school week would be good because it would give everyone an extra day to chill out and have fun or get a job or volunteer which would be good so that’s why. (6) Also, students who are less stressed out would do better in school anyway so doing stuff to make them less stressed is the best idea. (7) That’s just one of the reasons we should have a four-day school week. Put the number or numbers for each part of the body paragraph checklist.
