The Answer is D most definitely

Answer 2

Answer: D. She has eaten some pomegranate seeds.

Explanation: In the myth of Proserpina, Pluto abducted her, in order to marry him and live together in the underworld, but Ceres (Proserpina's mother) was devastated for losing her daughter and made all the flowers died and stopped the growth of all the fruits and vegetables (she was the goddess of agriculture),  Jupiter (Ceres' husband and Proserpina's father) ordered Pluto to free Proserpina. Pluto accepts but made Proserpina eat six pomegranate seeds (some versions say four), and that represented the six month Proserpina must spend in the underground with him.
