The relationship between Jenny and Forrest is initially looked at as Forrest’s savior, but Jenny also saw it as a way to escape her father when they were children, then later giving Forrest the role of safety net. He was always there when Jenny needed someone to lean on. She cares for Forrest very much and while she is kindhearted, she has also shown how selfish and self-destructing she is.

Jackie is an elite distance runner when no one else in her family has this trait is because she has a different combination of gene versions. Evidence card D states "she ran sprints three days a week, but her sprint times were nit very good, and she never won any races." This evidence supports the claim 2 and refutes claim 1 because even though she did train, she was not very good.

Another piece of evidence is on card B, it states that Lincoln has a gene version combination of A1 and A1 which points to the result of Jackie's mother having A1 is one of her gene versions. This is important bad use when you inherit genes from your

Imagine you are a lawyer tasked with an impossible case, and everybody in your community is against you, but still there is a shred of hope you cling to. What might that be you ask? That to which you cling are your morals. In To Kill a Mockingbird Atticus Finch had been given the Tom Robinson case, where a black man was convicted of raping a white woman. As a single father of two children, he continues to reinforce his values throughout the trial and during his daunting task of raising his children. In To Kill A Mockingbird what Harper Lee suggests about the nature of morals is that you should try to stand up for what you believe in even if people oppose or reject your ideals. Even when faced with an insurmountable opposition you should stand up for your morals because in the end if your don't follow your beliefs you are just contributing to the problem. We should try to create a voice for what we believe in and impress that upon the next generation so they can continue to exercise their beliefs to make the world a better place.

The fundamental values of such a character have developed through years of witnessing

She submitted recording demos of Dolly Parton and Dixie Chicks songs to record labels, and faced rejection from each label.
