Question

read the excerpt from \perseus.\ for a time she kept his birth secret from her father, but it became increasingly difficult to do so in the narrow limits of that bronze house and finally one day the little boy—his name was perseus—was discovered by his grandfather. \your child!\ acrisius cried in great anger. \who is his father?\ but when danae answered proudly, \zeus,\ he would not believe her. which greek hero characteristic is presented in this excerpt? having a goddess mother keeping a family secret living in an unusual home having a special birth

Explanation:

In Greek mythology, heroes often have special births, often involving divine parentage. Here, Perseus' mother claims Zeus (a god) as his father, indicating a special birth. Having a goddess mother is incorrect as Danaë is not a goddess. Keeping a family secret is a plot point but not a characteristic of Greek heroes. Living in an unusual home is just a setting detail.

Answer:

having a special birth
