Answer:

Hercules.

Explanation:

Hercules is a mythical character in Greek mythology. He is seen as the divine god, the son of Zeus -the god of thunder and King of the gods on Mount Olympus. Hercules was half man, half god and was the embodiment of masculinity, greatest of all Greek heroes, he also defeated Hector, the bravest and strongest warrior in the battle of Troy.

Hercules was a person of great physical strength and incredible sexual prowess with both men and women. He was also blessed with wisdom as he was not always a brute but employed his intellect when he found himself in situations his great strength couldn't save him.

Hercule was hated by the goddess Hera -wife of Zeus because Zeus made love to a mortal woman Alcmene by disgusting himself as her husband. Hera's hatred of Heracles was so much that she plotted to kill him at birth with the help of Ilithiya, goddess of childbirth but her plan failed.

Heracles was named Alcides by his earth parents but he later became known as Hercules. He was renamed to try and pacify Hera after she sent two giant snakes to kill Hercules and his twin brother when they were eight months old.

Hera eventually succeeded in making Heracles mad much later and he ended up killing his children.

In his quest to expatiate the murders, he was sent to perform twelve tasks by his archenemy Eurystheus. Even though Hercules performed all ten tasks, Eurystheus wouldn't accept two of the tasks and asked him to accomplish another two, which Hercules did with ease. He was expunged of his crimes and granted immortality.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

"Golly" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An interjection can also be named "an exclamation." It is a way to express oneself to display emotions. These words usually end with exclamation marks when they stand alone. If the word "Golly" was a so-called, "one word sentence," then it would end with an exclamation, particularly of surprise.

Hope this helps. :)

Why did Churchill replace Chamberlain as Britain's new prime minister shortly after World War II began?
Natasha2012 [34]

There should have been options to choose from for this question. I found the options elsewhere and the correct answer would be because Churchill had a better understanding of the situation with Hitler than Chamberlain did.

Churchill knew that diplomacy would not work with Hitler and the only way to reach a resolution was through military force and tactics.
