See my answer to your previous post.
To determine the most likely representation of the tomato seeds in "In Response to Executive Order 9066," we can analyze the text and look for clues. Here's an approach to finding the answer:
1. Read the poem "In Response to Executive Order 9066" by Dwight Okita to gain a deeper understanding of the context and themes.
2. Look specifically for references to tomato seeds and their significance in the poem. Pay attention to any descriptions, associations, or emotions connected to the tomato seeds.
3. Analyze the options provided and consider how they align with the poem and the function of the tomato seeds.
Now, since I'm not able to directly read the poem, I'll rely on general analysis to provide guidance:
Option a, the speaker's anger at her friend, might not align well with tomato seeds since anger doesn't typically associate with planting seeds.
Option b, the speaker's excitement about moving to a new place, could be a possibility if the act of planting tomato seeds symbolizes new beginnings or the speaker's anticipation of starting anew.
Option c, the speaker's love for her friend, might work if there is a meaningful connection between planting tomato seeds and the speaker's feelings towards her friend.
Option d, the speaker's sadness about leaving, would be suitable if the act of planting tomato seeds represents the speaker's sorrow regarding leaving her current place.
Remember, the answer depends entirely on the interpretation of the poem and the specific content that references tomato seeds. It would be helpful to review the poem thoroughly to make an informed decision.
