From the Odyssey, name 2 character traits of Penelope with evidence.

History
1 answer:
Oliga [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Odysseus's wife and Telemachus's mother. In the beginning of the story, Penelope's most prominent qualities are passivity, loyalty, and patience (along with beauty and skill at the loom) – the age-old feminine virtues. She does very little but lie in bed and weep. But from the start we are given to understand that she possesses other hidden qualities. The trick of the loom, which she weaves and unweaves in order to hold the suitors at bay, matches the cunning of any of Odysseus's plans. Her final scene, in which she mentions the bridal bed built around the olive tree, shows her cleverness as well: she tests Odysseus just as he has tested her. Theirs is a marriage of wits.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

<em>A. apportionment.</em>

Explanation:

In the process of apportionment 435 memberships of the US House of Representatives are divided between 50 American states.

Each state has the right for one member in the House of Representatives, the rest of the seats are distributed accordingly with the congressional district, which is a territorial division that has its boundary based in the number of the population registered by the Census.

A congressional district allows the area to elect one member, if the population changes in one area it may change the number of seats that congressional district can elect. So after the Census is completed the legislative seats are reapportioned. The number of seats can increase or be lowered.
