Let's solve the problem step by step.
Task:
The image is a 5th-grade activity titled *"What is a Legend?"* It provides a definition of a legend and asks you to choose the correct statements that describe what a legend is. There are six multiple-choice options, and you need to select all that apply based on the definition given.

Definition Given:

Now let’s analyze each option:
1.
Legends are based on the life of real person.
