The correct answer is
A) Families should not rob women if their freedom.
“But they need not have thought they could posses her, body and soul.” This line refers to how she feels “controlled” by her own feelings, towards her family

Answer from: Geo777

The right answer is the A) Families should not rob women of their freedom.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the word "possess" here should not be interpreted literally, and, therefore, option B should be discarded. In addition, Edna does not believe that she should relinquish his busband and two children in order to have more freedom and enjoy her life more, so option D can also be discarded. Her sacrifices as a mother and a wife have precisely deprived her of her desired freedom, so option C is also incorrect. What she is describing here is her belief in giving women who are mothers and wives a chance to have the freedom, and the right, to amuse and have time for themselves. Her husband and sons had completely forgotten that, besides a mother and a wife that took care of them, she was a woman with needs and desires.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

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.
