Which quotation states the claim of the passage?
“In order to create sugar, Europeans and colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans.”
“Each needed to vote, to speak out, to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal princes.”
“Why did people keep speaking of equality while profiting from slaves?”
“The global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery.”
Answer:
D. “The global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery.”
Explanation:
"Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom and Science" is a book written by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos.
This book gives an interesting insight on sugar and its impact on societies, from ancient to modern times.
This particular excerpt deals with the role sugar had in ending slavery which is quite ironic having in mind that the need for workers in the sugar factories was responsible for enslavement of millions of Africans from 16th till 18th century.
Working conditions in sugar factories and sugar plantations were inhuman because of the need to provide sugar to the growing market. The word about this reached the people in Europe where the wave of liberty and equality was spreading and culminated in French Revolution which ended slavery in French territories. Soon, other countries started following that example.

d) polymer
Answer: a) enzyme
Explanation:
Answer:
Enzyme.
Enzymes are protein catalysts that are produced by living plants and animals. They help speed up many biological reactions like the conversion of urea to ammonia and starch to maltose.
Peptide bonds, isomers and polymers aren't the correct answers as they are neither proteins nor do they speed up chemical reactions. They are purely structural terms.

Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
When I was twelve years old and Barton, my older brother, was around fifteen, we took over the family basement. At first, I made a darkroom for developing pictures, and Bart was using it as his lab where he was raising about one hundred white rats, removing their thymus glands, and trying to figure out the glands' dysfunction. He wanted pictures taken of his experiment, doing the surgery on rats, and since I already had a darkroom, I took the pictures, though somewhat reluctantly. I didn't like the blood.
What can you conclude about Barton from the excerpt?
He was interested in solving medical mysteries at a rather early age.
He did not understand why Dean would be squeamish about the blood.
He went on to become a very famous and successful doctor.
He had a severe dislike for rats and all other kinds of rodents.
Answer:
He was interested in solving medical mysteries at a rather early age.

How was suspense built in pages 150-190 and using text evidence as support, identify an example of suspense within those lines of the short story "Big Things Come in Small Packages" Be sure to explain why these selected lines caused suspense and what is their significance.
Answer and Explanation:
The suspense is caused by the unpredictability within the narrative, which is established in such a way that the reader, as well as the characters and even the narrator, cannot predict the facts that occurred during the history of that point forward. This causes confusion, anxiety and consequently suspense. Proof of this can be seen in the phrase "Big Things Come in Small Packages" which presents a totally unexpected and unpredictable situation, since nobody expects a small package to contain something big, which we also don't know what it is, but which can be wonderful or terrible.
