Hello!

The correct answer is "to heighten effect."

Hyperbole refers to the use of an exaggeration. When a writer uses hyperbole, it means that he is exaggerating a point in order to heighten its effect. 

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!

I think it would be to heighten the effect. I think it is this because it would help you add more of an effect on certain things snd help you explain certain objects or people. It will also make you belive how heavy something is etc.

Bezzdna [24]

Well, an internal conflict is when a character struggles in their mind and heart over a decision. An example could be; someone struggling over to make the right or wrong decision, like saving a book or burning a book, killing a spider or setting it free, helping someone carry boxes or leave them to do it themselves, etc.

Hope this helped!! Have a good day!
