No one knows for sure what causes the Catatumbo Lightning. Some scientists think it's caused by increased amounts of methane gas around the area. Others believe the lightning occurs because of the area's unique location—the very hot, humid air from the Catatumbo River and Lake Maracaibo meets cool air that comes down from the Andes mountains. 9 The mystery of what causes the lightning deepened when, beginning in January 2010, the lightning did not appear for a period of several months. During this time Venezuela, like many other parts of the world, was experiencing abnormal weather patterns, and the country was suffering from a severe drought. Some scientists speculate that this may have caused the Catatumbo Lightning to stop, but the answer remains unclear. Whatever the cause, the lightning resumed that April. main idea

HELP WILL GIVE BRAINIEST AND 20 POINTS!!! EXPLAIN THROUGHLY AND GIVE 5-6 SENTENCES, WHY DID PEOPLE WANT/VOTE KAMALA HARRIS BECOME VICE PRESIDENT, WHAT DO THEY SEE IN HER BASED ON THE TYPE OF PERSON SHE IS?? ONLY POSITIVE ANSWERS BC ITS FOR SCHOOL
Answer:
If you look at it from a logical viewpoint, you may not see the appeal to Kamala Harris, as she has done bad things before (much like any politician.) A major point to people voting for Kamala Harris to be Vice President is the fact that she represents democrats and liberal ideas. She will be the first woman to become vice president, as well. People are looking for a change in government, especially if they were not a fan of President Trump. People voted for her because they voted for President Elect Joe Biden. Some people, despite not liking her, voted for her because they see her and Biden as the lesser of two evils in this election.

PLEASE HELP NEED HELP NOW WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!Our Family Pet
Our family pet is an adorable kitten. This might not seem 1unusual. My mother hates cats. Perhaps hate is 2 to strong a word. She definitely fears them. She can’t help it. I guess 3 one could say this fear is inherited. Her mother, her three aunts, and her grandmother all share this phobia. Nonetheless, the kitten is a beloved member of our family now. 4 Here’s the story:
5 One summer morning in August, Mom and Aunt Fran went to the school track to walk. Off in the distance they heard a noise that sounded like a baby screaming. It was coming from a dumpster near the cafeteria. Alarmed, they moved closer to investigate. The wailing grew louder. Aunt Fran gasped when she saw the tiny head of a kitten trapped in a small opening in the bottom of the dumpster. 6 It’s body could not make it through the hole. Hopelessly trapped, 7 we saw that the creature continued to shriek. The women looked around for a mother 8 cat. None in sight.
They realized that the summer heat would be unbearable by midday. Quelling their fears, they rattled off options: call for someone to come help; push the kitten’s head back into the dumpster; 9pulling the rest of its body out of the opening; leave and hope someone who is not afraid finds the kitten in time; ignore the screeching and get walking.
10 Mom picked up a discarded jacket and covered the kitten’s head. She pulled gently, then firmly, but that kitten’s body was not coming out. So now it was Aunt Fran’s turn. After several attempts she pushed the kitten’s head back into the dumpster. Maternal instincts kicked in and my mother climbed into the dumpster. 11 Cautiously, she picked up the kitten.
Aunt Fran 13 said we oughtta name her D.D. for dumpster diver, but we were set on Lily. After our trip with the kitty to the vet, we learned that Lily is a boy! Of course we plan to change his name. We haven’t convinced Mom that we need a friend for the kitty, but I am optimistic. I like the name Frank, but my sister is pushing for Harold. Whatever name we choose, I am glad that mom and Aunt Fran were able to face their fears.
What traditional theme is conveyed through this story?
Question 19 options:
The importance of family pets
The importance of sisters
The importance of overcoming fears
The importance of family
Answer:
C. The importance of overcoming fears
Explanation:
Even though the aunt and mother had a fear of cats, they knew they had to help the poor thing stuck in the dumpster. It was important that they overcame this fear because if they didn't the kitten may have died. Saving the kitten also made the daughter happy that (1) they could have a pet cat and (2) their aunt and mother could overcome their fears of cats in order to save it. This is reinforced by the last sentence "...I am glad that mom and Aunt Fran were able to face their fears."
I hope this helps!!
- Kay :)
The importance of overcoming fears Despite their fears of cats, the aunt and mother realized they had to save the poor creature trapped in the rubbish. It was critical that they overcame their fear because the kitten might have died if they hadn't.
Why is it important to overcoming fears?People confront their concerns for a reason: it aids in their development. people will never be able to go forward unless overcome fears.
People never be able to establish a growth mindset and become a person who takes action, makes changes, and achieves success. Instead, people find in the same predicament.
Thus, option C is correct.
