One of the themes that emerges over the course of this novel is that war is brutal and awful. how does the depiction of henry's mother in this excerpt begin to establish or develop that theme? a. by indicating that henry's mother enthusiastically supports her son's decision to enlist, the novel shows that civilians who have not experienced war often develop highly romanticized or idealized views of it. b. by showing henry's mother's disinterest in the war, even after her son enlists, the novel suggests that she has personally experienced war and been severely damaged by it. c. by having henry's mother react to his enlistment not with pride and poetic language, but rather with resignation and realistic advice, the novel suggests that mature individuals know the ugly truth about war. d. by describing the anger that henry's mother feels when henry enlists, the novel indicates that war punishes the loved ones of soldiers the most, as they must endure great fear and uncertainty while the fighting rages on.

Iwill only mark brainliest if you get it correct. read the following prompt and type your response in the space provided. examine the diagram and text: you see water all around you every day as lakes, rivers, ice, rain and snow. there are also vast amounts of water that are unseen—water existing in the ground. and even though groundwater is unseen, it is moving below your feet right now. as part of the water cycle, groundwater is a major contributor to flow in many streams and rivers and has a strong influence on river and wetland habitats for plants and animals. people have been using groundwater for thousands of years and continue to use it today, largely for drinking water and irrigation. life on earth depends on groundwater just as it does on surface water. there are rivers flowing below our feet … a myth? have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? do you think it’s true? actually, it is pretty much a myth. even though there are some caverns, lava, and ice tubes, and horizontal springs that can carry water, the vast majority of underground water occupies the space between rocks and subsurface material. some rivers, such as the alpha river in northern florida, usa, can disappear underground during low flow periods. generally, water underground is more like water in a sponge. it occupies the space is between soil and rock particles. at a certain depth below the land surface, the spaces between the soil and rock particles can be totally filled with water, resulting in an aquifer from which groundwater can be pumped into used by people. courtesy of the u. s. geological survey is there missing or extraneous information in this diagram? are all of the details in the text relevant and accurate? explain using details from the text.
