Odysseus tells polyphemus that his name is nobody so a) he can prove the cyclops is not as smart as he is b) the cyclops will not be able to get from his friends c) the gods will not know who blinded the giant d) he could care less what the cyclops thinks

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

When Polyphemus asked Odysseus his name, the heroe replies "Outis," which, in Greek, means "nobody."

Then, Odyssues and his companions hurt Polyphemus in his eye, making him scream for help. But when the other cyclops gather near his cave and ask who is hurting him, Polyphemus replies that "nobody" is murdering him, making the other cyclops ignore the cries for help and go away.

This strategy planned by Odysseus prevented Posidon's son from getting help from his kinship.
