Texts tend to use bold font, or to highlight words and phrases whenever they want to call out important data. This is because a different type of font or highlighted words are more likely to stand out to the reader, and the information is therefore more likely to be remembered.

links to related information.

Sources that are online are able to include links to information that is related to the main topic, and that the reader might find interesting. However, a source that is presented in print cannot do this.

imaginary

"Mythical" means that something is part of a myth, or that it only appears in myths. In this case, the fact that the sphinx is mythical means that it only appears in myths, and therefore, is not real. In other words, it is imaginary.
