In "The Things They Carried," each character carries physical and emotional burdens that represent their past and present experiences in the Vietnam War. Some defining objects include Lt. Cross's letters from Martha, Kiowa's Bible, Rat Kiley's medical kit, Ted Lavender's tranquilizers, and Norman Bowker's thumb of his deceased friend Kiowa. Each object serves as a symbol of the weight of their memories, fears, and responsibilities during the war.
You can call a flat item used to carry things a "bag" or a "tote." These items are designed with handles to make it easy to transport objects from one place to another.
Ants carry things by using their strong jaws and mandibles to grasp and lift objects. They also use their bodies to form chains or lines to pass objects along to their nest. Additionally, some ants have specialized adaptations, such as sticky pads on their feet or enlarged heads for carrying larger items.
Photons carry electromagnetic energy.
Tornadoes suck things up due to the rapid rotation of air within the funnel, creating a low-pressure center that pulls objects towards it. This low pressure causes the air, debris, and objects around the tornado to be sucked into the center of the vortex and carried upwards.
Electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
