    They all have increased surface area for gas exchange - fish have gill filaments covered with lamellae, frogs are small to maintain a high SA:V ratio and use their skin and basic lungs, while lungs in mammals have extensive branching. They also need to be kept moist. No problem in fish, while...

    Chem question

    The molar weight is basically all the atomic masses of the formula added together. So some combination of carbon (12) and hydrogen (1) added together will give you 42 e.g. 3x12 + 6x1 = 42, or C3H6

    Judith Wright / Poetry Assessment

    I've interpreted 'Legend' in two different ways. Judith Wright was big on being in harmony with nature, so one way of looking at it is the need to be in harmony in nature, and the powerful force and strength that nature possesses. In the first few stanzas, you can see that the blacksmith's boy...

    Related text needed for AOS in Adv Eng

    Almost any text can be related back to the human condition in some way, since almost all of them deal with human experiences and perspectives in some way. One short story I find is quite good is The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry. If you're thinking about poems, have a look at some by Judith...

    How to write an inner journey analysis but not a summary?

    An inner journey is the message that's conveyed through the poem, so your analysis will be related to inner journeys. Basically, a summary of the poem will go through the plotline and maybe a bit on the characters, but is basically a shortened form of the storyline. An analysis is not focusing...

    How to write an inner journey analysis but not a summary?

    Yep, when analyzing, just try and connect what you're trying to prove with the techniques you can find. When you analyze, you try and look at how a text is put together in order to convey the author's message, in this case an inner journey. So look for techniques that particularly contribute...
