I need a diagram of a plant cell, with a vacuole, chromosome, and cytoplasm. Do you have any good ones?

Plant cells are fairly consistent across species in shape and build. The vacuole will appear as a large water-filled sac that takes up the vast majority of the cell. Due to the plant's inability to search for food or water sources on its own, plant cells require a large storage space to store what materials they can find, which is the vacuole that takes up 60%-70% of the space inside of the cell.


Chromosomes are...

Chromosomes are the DNA structures that all eukaryotic cells have in their nuclei. Plant cells are no different and their chromosomes can be found as small x-shaped structures stored inside of their nucleus just inside of the nuclear membrane. This may also be seen as chromatin, which is one half of a chromosome before it has been replicated. 


The cytoplasm is the jelly-like fluid that fills the rest of the cell. The organelles float and move around inside the cytoplasm and pass around materials through it. This is also where proteins are made, waste products and nutrients can be found being sent from organelle to organelle, and most general activities happen.


Linked below are some good diagrams.

What are some external and internal conflicts that Montag has in Fahrenheit 451?

 Montag, the protagonist of Fahrenheit 451, faces both external and internal conflicts throughout the novel. Some examples of these conflicts are: External Conflicts: Conflict with the society: Montag lives in a society that prohibits books and critical thinking. He faces opposition from the government and the people who enforce this law. Montag struggles to come to terms with the fact that his society is based on censorship and control. Conflict with his wife: Montag's wife, Mildred, is completely absorbed in the shallow and meaningless entertainment provided by the government. Montag's growing dissatisfaction with his marriage adds to his external conflict. Conflict with the fire captain: Montag's superior, Captain Beatty, is the personification of the oppressive regime that Montag is fighting against. Montag's struggle against Beatty represents his external conflict with the government. Internal Conflicts: Conflict with his own beliefs: Montag, at the beginning of th...

In A People's History of the United States, why does Howard Zinn feel that Wilson made a flimsy argument for entering World War I?

"War is the health of the state," the radical writer Randolph Bourne said, in the midst of the First World War. Indeed, as the nations of Europe went to war in 1914, the governments flourished, patriotism bloomed, class struggle was stilled, and young men died in frightful numbers on the battlefields-often for a hundred yards of land, a line of trenches. -- Chapter 14, Page 350, A People's History of the United States Howard Zinn outlines his arguments for why World War I was fought in the opening paragraph of Chapter 14 (referenced above). The nationalism that was created by the Great War benefited the elite political and financial leadership of the various countries involved. Socialism, which was gaining momentum in Europe, as was class struggle, took a backseat to mobilizing for war. Zinn believes that World War I was fought for the gain of the industrial capitalists of Europe in a competition for capital and resources. He states that humanity itself was punished by t...
