Hello. Since you did not provide the text, the answer may be a little inaccurate, but I hope it helps.

Answer and Explanation:

One of the most important points in Edipo Rei's story is the professions and how they impact the story and influence the characters' actions. Firstly we see the profession being given to Edipo's biological father, while the oracle says that he will be killed by his son and that this will result in a curse for the family. Edipo's father is so agonized by this information that he orders to kill his own son, who survives and, in fact, kills him without knowing that he is his father. This moment reveals the lack of fraternity in the family and the fear of the future.

Oedipus also receives the profession that he will kill his father and marry his mother and for fear of causing harm to his adoptive parents he leaves, in the middle of the way he murders his biological father and marries his biological mother, without knowing his familiarity. between them.

The last prophecy is shown when Oedipus seeks the killer of the king of Thebes, his biological father, and receives the profession that the killer is closer to what he imagines.

natita [175]

The correct answer is B. Virgil

Explanation:

Virgil was a Roman poet that lived during the period Augustus reigned, who was the first emperor in Rome. This poet is mainly known for his poems the Eclogues and the Georgics that deal with different aspects of agriculture and rural life and the epic poem the Aeneid that tells the story of a warrior called Aeneas. These literary works made him one of the greatest poets in Rome during the historical period he lived and even centuries after his death as his poems were widely studied during late antiquity in Rome and during the Middle Ages. This means, the poet that was not an ancient Greek poet was Virgil as he was born in the Rome Empire and developed all his literary works in it, also, other poets such as Sappho, Virgil and Homer are part of the Greek literature and therefore they are all Greek poets.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Eating a variety of foods from the five major food groups provides a range of different nutrients to the body, promotes good health and can help reduce the risk of disease – as well as keeping your diet interesting with different flavours and textures! The venue in which food is eaten can affect food choice, particularly in terms of what foods are on offer. The availability of healthy food at home and 'away from home' increases the consumption of such foods. However, access to healthy food options is limited in many school/work enivorments.
