Near the end of the excerpt, the author mentions "neither eagle nor serpent, but both." What does this indicate about her intersectional identity?

The phrase “neither eagle nor serpent, but both” presents the author as encompassing two identities or qualities at once, rather than fitting into only one category. This points to an identity formed from a combination of diverse elements. So the best choice is “It embodies a combination of diverse elements.”
