Answer:

The best option is letter D. having a special birth.

Explanation:

Greek heroes have several characteristics in common. They are usually handsome, brave, strong men who defeat monsters and armies to defend their country, its people, and their loved ones. They are also favored by one of the gods and, from a very young age, perform great feats. Another characteristic that is typical of Greek heroes is their unusual or special birth. Several of them are the result of an affair between a god and a mortal woman, as we can see in the excerpt in the question. Perseus and the very famous Hercules were both sons of Zeus. That usually results in their being semi-gods, which makes them more powerful than regular people.
