Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. Both are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources. What is one clue word or phrase in the passage that indicates a contrast? A. However B. Both C. In any case D. Because

What does the difference in size between Icarus and the farmer at the forefront most clearly suggest?A-The farmer plays a bigger role in the landscape than Icarus.
B-Icarus's drowning is more dramatic than the farmer's work.
C-Icarus and the farmer are of equal importance.
D-Icarus and the farmer are at an equal distance from the ship.

Answers

The difference in size between Icarus and the farmer most clearly suggest

that the farmer plays a bigger role in the landscape than Icarus.

In the bookLandscape with the fall of Icarusby Peter Bruegel, the farmer is

clearly visible due to his position in the front while Icarus is hardly seen.

This tells us that Icarus had a lessereffect on the role he played in the

landscape while the farmer being at the front and clearly visible shows that

he played a bigger role in it.

The answer is A. (I'm assuming you're talking about Landscape With the Fall of Icarus by Peter Bruegel.) 
Icarus is hardly visible in the artwork. The farmer is very clearly visible in the front. This shows that the artist is trying to emphasize the farmer and also show that Icarus is very insignificant compared to the rest of the scene, so all the other answer choices are incorrect.
Hope that helped you.

‘Some’ is an example of a qualified term.Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answers

It is true, because some is not an absolute term. The distinction between absolute and qualified terms is about the purposes, where absolute shows limitations and restraint for the given topic. For example, The stars can only be seen at nights - It is an example of absolute quality. We have a strict restraint here that the stars can only be seen at night time. But Some frog species only have one leg is an example of qualified term - In this sentence we show that there are other species, as well which we are not discussing.

A qualified term is something that be true, assuming other conditions are also met. For example, the right to free speech is a qualified right. You do have a right to free speech, provided that you aren’t breaking any conditions such as slander, obscenity, or plagiarism.
