The correct answer is - When studying mythology, I learned about several gods and goddesses: Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Hercules.

This is the only sentence which is punctuated correctly because the first part (before the list) ends abruptly; it is obvious that something needs to be placed there. In this case, that is a colon.

The other sentences have leading words (particularly, such as, were) that don't require a colon after them.

Two ways you can avoid gender biased language
Strike441 [17]
I think the correct answer is B. Using general subjects and masculine and feminine pronouns are ways to avoid gender biased language. General subjects can pertain to a male and female. Also, including both masculine and feminine pronouns in a statement will aid gender equality.

What is the subject of hamlet's second soliloquy the famous to be or not to be speech?
Ghella [55]
In Hamlet's second monologue, he responds to a discourse that has quite recently been conveyed by one of a voyaging gathering of players, or on-screen characters, as of late landed at the mansion. This discourse concerns the antiquated story of the fall of Troy on account of the Greeks, and the terrible murder of the Trojan ruler, Priam. The Player gives off an impression of being overwhelmed by the feeling of the scene and winds up with tears in his eyes.
