Answer:
C. superhuman strength to hold up the world, then his resourcefulness to trick Atlas.
Step-by-step explanation:
As his 11th labor, Eurystheus commanded Hercules to bring him golden apples belonging to Zeus, the king of the gods. These apples were located in a garden at the northern edge of the world, and they were guarded by a hundred-headed dragon, named Ladon and the Hesperides, nymphs and daughters of Atlas, the titan who held the sky and the earth upon his shoulders.
Hercules' first problem was that he didn't know where the garden was. He journeyed through Libya, Egypt, Arabia, and Asia.
When he met Prometheus at Mount Caucasus, Prometheus told Hercules that instead of going himself, he should send Atlas after the apples.
Hercules found Atlas and just as Prometheus had predicted, Atlas went to get the apples while Hercules managed the weight of the world. When Atlas returned with the golden apples, he told Hercules he would take them to Eurystheus himself, and asked Hercules to stay there and hold the heavy load for the rest of time. Hercules slyly agreed but asked Atlas whether he could take it back again, just for a moment, while Hercules cushioned his shoulders to prepare to bear the weight of the world. Atlas put the apples on the ground, and lifted the burden onto his own shoulders. Hercules picked up the apples, and ran off.
