3. In what different ways does the text
Maksim231197 [3]

The full question is: In what different ways does the text distinguish prometheus's character from that of the other gods on mount olympus

Answer and Explanation:

The text to which the question refers is "Prometheus the friend of man."

Consequently, you should name the appropriate or logical doer of the action as the subject of the main clause. In this case, it could be an NP such as "the scientist" or you can turn the whole sentence into a when clause --> When the scientist was preparing the experiment, several slides...
