Answer:

The answer is letter A, Prose indicates that the Nurse is of lower social rank than Juliet.

Explanation:

When it comes to Shakespeare's characters in his story, it is evident that his characters speak in different language techniques.

It is common for high-class characters to speak in verse style and for low-class characters to speak in prose style.<em> </em>This allows the audience to distinguish the social classes.

<em>"Blank verse</em><em>"</em> is a kind of poetry that has unrhymed lines. This is the language style of Juliet and it tells much about her social status, being a daughter of a noble family. On the contrary the Nurse replies in alternate blank verse and prose because she tries to speak in the formal language of superior people, but cannot achieve it.

A "prose" is a common language style used by ordinary people. It doesn't have a rhyme or a metric scheme.
