Explanation:

The first question is subjective it depends on who is answering it and doesn´t give much room to invesitgate properly, its also too long to investigate.

The second question could be answered but again it would be up to who is answering and it´s not a research question, could be answeres in a paragraph.

The third question can be answered with just a sentence, or just the name, is too narrow and is not a research question.

THe fourth question is the one that we can call an effective research question, it is narrow enough to make a valid point and it asks you especifically for the characteristics of Perseus and how this relate to heroism in ancient greece.
