It is implied that Grendel's family has magical invulnerability that prevents human-made weapons from injuring them because the sword that Beowulf eventually discovers and uses to kill Grendel's Mother was manufactured by giants.
How does the scene of Beowulf's attack on Grendel's mother play off?
A young hero named Beowulf engages in battles against the monster Grendel and his mother in the epic tale of Beowulf, and later, the battle with the dragon that would decide his fate is also discussed. The Geat prince is known as Beowulf. The huge mead hall of Hrothgar, king of the Danes, is in Heorot, and he is also Ecgtheow's son. Being Scyld Scefing's great grandson, Hrothgar.
During the course of this section, Beowulf battles Grendel's mother in a cave while submerged in water. Beowulf is assaulted by Grendel's mother as he descends to her subterranean home and is then carried there. Despite his best efforts, he is unable to pierce her flesh as he swings his sword at her. Beowulf assaults her with his bare fists out of fury and frustration. He manages to knock Grendel's mother to the ground, but she quickly recovers and fights back, sitting on top of him in the process. Beowulf is shielded from her strikes by his armour as she desperately attempts to murder him with her knife. Then, Beowulf notices a huge sword forged by giants on the cave's wall, knocks Grendel's mother off of him, and seizes the weapon. Beowulf discovers an incredible weapon. The hilt, or handle, is extremely decorated, and the blade is larger than the typical sword. Beowulf slashes at Grendel's mother with the sword, breaking her collarbones and slashing her in half. Following the assault, the cave is illuminated, "exactly as from the sky heaven's torch glows plain." When Beowulf sees Grendel's corpse, he immediately chops off the monster's head and gives it to Hrothgar.
The heated, toxic blood then causes the blade of Beowulf's new sword to start to melt. The immense treasures in the cave are all visible to Beowulf, yet he chooses not to take any of them. He holds the hilt in one hand and the head of Grendel in the other as he swims to shore. He is subsequently welcomed by his other soldiers, who are eager to see Beowulf once again. To celebrate the victory, four soldiers transport Grendel's head to Heorot. In Hrothgar's large mead hall, the head is displayed as a prize for everyone to see.

In her article "Why Should I Vote?" Stephanie Goggin crafts a well-organized and coherent argument. She states that every person of voting age who is registered should vote. She also argues that if you are not registered to vote, you should be. In conclusion, Goggin's argument is laid out in a thoughtful and thorough way that is convincing to readers. Which element is missing from this evaluation? summary of the claim thesis statement concluding statement evaluation of evidence
Answer:
The element that is missing from this evaluation is:
evaluation of evidence.
Explanation:
The evaluation we are analyzing here compliments Goggin's argument. It says what the claim is - that every person of voting age should vote. It also states that Goggin argues people should register to vote, in case they haven't already. However, at no point does this evaluation discuss the evidence Goggin gives to support her claim. She thinks everyone should vote. Why is that? What happens when people do not vote? What proof does she have of that? Is that proof strong enough? None of those questions is answered. Therefore, the author of the evaluation fails to mention and discuss evidence.
Answer:
Evaluation of Evidence

In the context of the text, what are the effects of prejudice? How has America's marginalization of minorities contributed to the need for code-switching? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer
Answer:
1. In the context of the text, prejudice leads to feelings of inferiority, inability to communicate effectively, and difficulty adjusting to new environments.
2. America's marginalization of minorities has brought about the development of different values in children raised in different communities/cultures. Different styles of communication learned by children classified as minorities, may be regarded as foreign or derogatory by the White people.
The rejection Eric Deggans faced from White parents who did not want their children associating with him because of his background is an example of how America's marginalization of minorities has caused a need for code-switching. Eric became more conscious of his environment and began adapting his language and speech accordingly.
Explanation:
Code-switching is the act of switching between languages in communication. In the American setting, this act is even much needed especially among the minorities because their style of communication differs from the predominantly white community.
While those who do not use this skill may view it as putting up an act, skilled users know that it is an important means of communication.
Answer 1 :
The effects of prejudice in context of the text leads to an inferiority complex, lack of effective communication, and difficulty adapting to new environments.
Answer 2:
America's marginalization of minorities contributed to the need for code-switching has led to the development of different values among children raised in different communities / cultures. The different styles of communication learned by minority children can be considered alien or derogatory by whites.

compare the relation between environment
and development *
.
Answer: The relationship between the environment and economic development may be accessed from two different points of view. One point of view is that factors like political climate, governmental policies and culture in the environment affects economic development. A second viewpoint is the manner in which the activities associated with economic development affect the environment.Environment and economic development are linked in the sense that the factors in place in the environment have a huge impact on the rate of economic development for a region. A country with a politically unstable reputation will not be able to attract necessary investors and businesses from interested investors both within and outside the country. A local investor with the resources to establish a business may prefer to take his or her money elsewhere, to a country with a reasonably stable government. This lack of investment by entrepreneurs is due to the fact that there is no guarantee of any security for their investments. Lack of security also means that the business will not flourish in the way it would in a country with a stable government.
