The correct answer is A. Ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables

Explanation:

In poetry, verses are composed of rhythmic units, which are called foot, one of the most common ones is the lamb, which is composed of an unstressed syllable and one stressed or accent syllable. Additionally, iambs can be included in different numbers which leads to a different rhythm in the poem this includes the iambic dimeter that is about creating verses by including two iambs, the iambic trimeter which is included three iambs and the iambic pentameter that means five iambs or ten syllables in which each pair is composed by one unstressed and one stressed syllable. Therefore, the description that matches the poetic form of iambic pentameter is "ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables".

'Iamb' refers to the sequence of unstressed and stressed syllables, and 'pentameter' means that there are ten syllables (penta means five, so you just multiply it by two). So the correct answer is 'ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables'.

Answer:

Hades and Zeus

Have you ever wondered about greek mythology? Well, you can learn about 2 of the Greek gods by reading this. You can learn about Hades ruler of the underworld and Zeus King of the Olympians and ruler of the universe. Zeus and hades are alike in many ways but also different read on to learn more.

Zeus and hades are alike in one way because they are both greek gods or Olympians. Also, they both are the rulers of their own domain even though Zeus is the ruler of the Universe whereas Hades is the ruler of the underworld. Another way they are alike is that they are the sons of Kronos or 2 of the big three while Poseidon would be the third brother of the three.

Now that we talked about the similarites then let's talk about how they are different. One way they are different is that hades is the firstborn of the 'big three' and zeus is the youngest. Another difference is that they rule different domains because Zeus rules the overworld and hades rules the underworld. Zeus has children with mortals and children that are greek gods and goddesses but hades had no affairs with mortals or other gods.

So now that you are finished reading did you learn any new facts? Or do you want to learn more about those greek gods?
