How did greek sculptures of figures differ from egyptian and roman ones? a. they were very sturdy, with arms and legs positioned close to the torso. b. they depicted individuals who were physically unfit in the contraposto pose c. they first showed the contraposto pose, with the weight shifted to one leg and the body in an s-curve d. they were carvings made of cream-colored ivory

I believe the correct answer is C. They first showed the contrapposto pose, with the weight shifted to one leg and the body in an S-curve.

Contrapposto (counterpoise) is the technique used in the visual arts to describe a human figure standing with most of its weight on one foot and the body in an S-curve.  Greek sculptors used contrapposto to present how the body could convey the whole range of human emotional sensation or movements, culminating in the desperate anguish and pathos. The best example is the sculpture  “Laocoön and His Sons”.
