1. Explain why snake is incorporated in the medical symbol? (10pts)

- It has been said that the son of Apollo and the human princess named Coronis;
Asclepius is the Greek demigod of medicine. The Greeks considered the snaked as
a sacred and useful in terms of their healing rituals to honor Asclepius, as snake
venom was thought to be an alternative and their skin-shedding was regarded to be
a symbol of rebirth and fertility. The two snakes are known as caduceus. Since then,
the snake has been the symbol for mostly all the logo that are related to health care.
