Which element of an epic poem features a call for divine aid? in medias res an invocation
an extended simile
a famous battle

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is an invocation.

The root of the word invocation is voice, which means that you are calling someone to join you. That is exactly what invocation is - summoning someone divine to aid you, especially in Greek epic poems. 
In medias res means that the story begins immediately, without any introduction; an extended simile is when you compare two or more things, but the comparison takes place over several lines. 
Answer 2
Answer: The correct answer is an invocation

In medias res is when a story begins without a specific introduction, an extended simile is a comparison, while a famous battle is a famous battle. Invocation is summoning divine aid.

Every guest at Indian Island is accused of what crime?

Answers

In Agatha Christie's novel "And Then There Were None" (formerly titled "Ten Little Indians"), every guest on Indian Island is accused of a specific crime or wrongdoing. However, the nature of the accusations and the crimes vary from one adaptation to another. In the original version of the story, the accusations are tied to crimes such as murder, manslaughter, or causing the death of others, and each guest has a different accusation against them. These accusations play a central role in the unfolding mystery of the novel as the characters are confronted with their past actions. Hope this helps though brainlist would be appreciated thanks
