Answer 1

Answer:

• These are characteristics of a Greek hero: battles an antagonist, goes on a journey, has no fault, has supernatural gifts, is a skilled fighter.
• They are not characteristic of a Greek hero: fights with a team.

Explanation:

Greek heroes were, for the most part, demigods, which allowed them to have supernatural abilities from their semi-divine nature, they were portrayed as skilled, brave, honorable, strong and without any kind of defects. They were so self-sufficient that they were able to resolve their battles and struggles without the need for a team to help them, moreover, they often went into great horns to achieve their goals.

An example of this is Theseus, who possessed a superhuman strength and was able to go on a journey with the aim of killing a minotaur who brought much suffering to people.
