Correct Answer: Discus throw


Solution : The correct option is Discus throw.

The discus is a wood disc with metal plates embedded in the rim that taper out from a thick core. Discobolus, a statue by Greek artist Myron (c. 460–450 BC), is thrown with one hand and has represented the endurance and universality of athletic action since its Olympic beginnings. One of the ten events in the decathlon is the discus.
