Question

1. read this passage from the manticore entry on the website the medieval bestiary. based on its vocabulary and content, who do you think is the primary audience for this entry? zookeepers medieval scholars children ages 9-12 high school and adult readers

Explanation:

The passage is from "The Medieval Bestiary" about the Manticore, which is a medieval - related topic. Medieval scholars would have a professional or academic interest in such medieval - themed content. Zookeepers deal with real animals, not mythical medieval creatures. Children ages 9 - 12 might find it interesting but the content's depth (related to medieval bestiary) is more suited for an older, more academically inclined group like high school and adult readers? Wait, no, the question is about the primary audience. Wait, the "Medieval Bestiary" entry: high school and adult readers (students and adults) are likely the primary audience as the content about medieval bestiary (mythical creatures in medieval lore) is educational and accessible to high school students and adults. Medieval scholars might be a more specialized audience, but the question is about primary. Wait, let's re - evaluate. The options: zookeepers (no, manticore is mythical), medieval scholars (too specialized), children 9 - 12 (maybe too young for the content's context), high school and adult readers (educational level appropriate for learning about medieval bestiary). So the primary audience is high school and adult readers.

Answer:

high school and adult readers
