A word or phrase that is opposite in meaning to another word or phrase.

A figure of speech that uses exaggeration for emphasis or effect.

A figure of speech that compares two unlike things using 'like' or 'as'.

A figure of speech that gives human qualities or characteristics to inanimate objects or abstract ideas.

A figure of speech that directly addresses an absent person or inanimate object as if it were present and capable of understanding.

A figure of speech that uses words with opposite meanings to create a strong effect.

A figure of speech that involves the use of words or phrases that suggest a sensory experience.

The act of representing something with a symbol.

The eight ray sun symbolizes the first eight provinces to revolt against Spanish rule during the Philippine Revolution in 1896. According to Philippine history, these provinces were Manila, Cavite, Bulacan, Laguna, Batangas, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, and Tarlac. The eight rays represent these provinces and their collective fight for freedom.

He was only 14 years old when he joined the Philippine-American War. He is known for his bravery in the Battle of Tirad Pass where he fought against the American forces until his last breath. He is considered one of the youngest heroes of the Philippine Revolution.

The first official flag of the Philippines, also known as the "Waving Flag", was sewn by Marcela Agoncillo, a skilled seamstress, in Hong Kong in 1897. She used red and white materials and incorporated the sun and stars design.

The late Filipino actor, Fernando Poe Jr., popularly known as "FPJ", was honored by renaming the Roosevelt Station of the LRT Line 1 in his memory. This reflects the Filipino people's high regard and respect for the actor and his contributions to Philippine cinema.

The National Artist for Film, Ricky Lee, won the "Best Screenplay" award at the 2024 Metro Manila Film Festival for his participation in GMA Pictures' Green Bones. His talent and ability to write compelling screenplays have earned him recognition in the Philippine film industry.

The speaker believes that laughter in the face of death is futile because everyone will eventually die and end up in a grave. The speaker views this fate as inevitable and suggests that laughter in the face of death is like brandishing a sign of madness, highlighting the futility of our joy.

The point where two chromatids exchange genetic material during meiosis. This exchange occurs during the Prophase I stage of meiosis, where the homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange segments of their DNA.

The recoil speed of the rifle is approximately 160 m/s in the opposite direction of the bullet's motion. This can be calculated using the conservation of momentum principle, where the total momentum of the system (rifle + bullet) before firing is equal to the total momentum after firing. Momentum is calculated using the following: p = mv where; p = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity

Compound A is most likely an ionic compound. Ionic compounds exhibit the following characteristics:

• High melting point: Due to the strong electrostatic forces between ions.
• Brittle in solid state: The rigid structure of ionic lattices breaks easily.
• Dissolved in water: Polar water molecules can interact with the charged ions and break the ionic bonds.
• Good conductor of electricity in solution: Free ions in solution can carry electrical charges.

A single orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons. This is based on the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers.

The Moon's orbit is tilted at an angle to the Earth's orbit around the sun. This means that the Moon does not always pass directly between the Earth and the Sun during its monthly orbit.

The first word in a binomial system is the genus to which the species belongs.

Oxygen. The light-dependent reaction uses light energy to split water molecules, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. The oxygen is then used in the light-independent reaction, also known as the Calvin cycle, to produce glucose.

Solids do not diffuse because the particles are tightly packed and held together by strong attractive forces, resulting in limited movement. Gases, on the other hand, have weak intermolecular forces and their particles can move freely, leading to diffusion.

Xylem is a type of vascular tissue that conducts water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem conducts food (produced by photosynthesis) throughout the plant.

Global warming. Greenhouse gases trap heat from the Sun, leading to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth.

Joules. While calories (Cal) are commonly used to measure heat, the standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule (J).

13.2 liters. This is based on Charles's Law which states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature when pressure is held constant. V1/T1 = V2/T2.

Elements and Compounds. Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means, while compounds are formed when two or more elements combine chemically in a fixed ratio.

Amphibians. Amphibians are vertebrates that live on land but return to the water to reproduce, such as frogs, toads, and salamanders.

160 m/s This can be calculated using the impulse-momentum theorem. Impulse is the product of the force and the time over which it acts. Impulse = Δp = FΔt. Therefore, Δv = FΔt/m. Also, the time interval during which the force acts is 8 s. So the change in velocity can be calculated as: Δv = FΔt/m = (20,000 N)(8 s) / 1000 kg = 160 m/s.
