Pasha · Answer 1

C) A Greek athlete concentrating on his task

Explanation:

The original greek sculpture, now lost, was named as discobulus, meaning "discus thrower".

The sculputre represents a discuss thrower preparing himself for a throw. According to experts, the way he is positioning his body is uncomfortable and inefficient, and probably does not correspond with the way Greek athletes proceeded in the past.
