Do people ever wonder what makes them who they are? What makes them so unique and special? What literally‚ makes them‚them? In the short stories‚ "Mother To Son" and "Abuela Invents the Zero"‚ the main characters face the same question and help show the answer. Everyday experiences help shape values and decisions‚ for better or for worse. In the short story "Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes‚ the main character "mother" explains to her son difficulties in life and how they changed her outlook.

In contrast‚ the main difference of the two is the authors approach. “Abuela Invents the Zero” is realistic fiction‚ whereas “Gombei and the Wild ducks” has a literary genre of folktale. The first author‚ Judith Ortiz Cofer‚ chose to write “Abuela Invents the Zero” as a short story and is considered to have a genre of a realistic fiction. According to Cofer‚ “So we go to Kennedy to get la abuela and she is the last to come off the airplane…” (465). This piece of evidence shows that the story has

Energy‚ often in the state of heat‚ is involved in chemical reactions and phases changes. Changes in energy‚ can translate in temperature differentiations. In such a case‚ energy is transferred as heat. The quantity of heat exerted in a reaction referred to as (joules) can be identified through the following equation: Heat Exerted= (Mass of Sample) x (Specific Heat) x (Change in Temperature) q=msΔT Within a calorimeter is where the reactions within this lab take place. A calorimeter allows the

"A Day’s Wait" (1936) is a brief story by Ernest Hemingway that conveys the seemingly tragic outcome of miscommunication between a boy and his father. Schatz is a nine-year-old boy who becomes sick one winter night. After a doctor is called‚ it is determined that Schatz has contracted the flu and has a high fever. It is considered only a mild case‚ and the doctor leaves medicine for the boy‚ who overhears the physician tell the father that the boy’s temperature is 102 degrees. It is this information

Enthalpy of Neutralization J. Smith M. Smith CHEM 1290-xx 10-31-06 TA Purpose: The purpose of the experiment is to determine the calorimeter constant for the calorimeter holding a specific solution based on the data of heat lost and heat gained. The purpose is to also be able to determine the enthalpy of neutralization for the reaction of a strong acid (phosphoric acid) and a strong base (sodium hydroxide). Experimental: Materials: The materials needed for this lab included; 2 large beakers‚

Homeostasis Lab: The Effects of Exercise on Homeostasis Lab Write Up Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to discover the effect that various levels of exercise have on specific body parameters such as heart rate‚ body temperature‚ perspiration level‚ body color‚ and breathing rate. Homeostasis will be monitored to calculate the change in such body parameters. To find this information the subject will exercise for a controlled periods of time. At each rest‚ the subject will be recorded upon
