Mary Malone's character is well-described through direct characterization all throughout the story Lamb to the Slaughter.. This direct characterization occurs each time the author describes Mary physically and in detail. An example of direct characterization is.
State Fossil: Basilosaurus cetoides This fossil whale lived in the Gulf of Mexico, which during the Eocene (~ 50-40 million years ago) extended over much of the Gulf Coast region. The first Basilosaurus fossils were found along the bluffs of the Ouachita River in Alabama in 1832.
The most famous fossil is the partial skeleton named Lucy (3.2 million years old) found by Donald Johanson and colleagues, who, in celebration of their find, repeatedly played the Beatles song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.y the time it was found, it was the first complete skull of A. afarensis. The rarity of relatively complete craniofacial remains in the A. afarensis samples before the discovery of AL 444-2 seriously hampered prior meaningful analysis of those samples' evolutionary significance.
