Question

How does character motivation affect a story's plot?

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. It helps move the plot forward

Explanation:

In the development of a story (plot), the character's motivation comprises the reasons or situations that define a character's identity and actions in the story. Moreover, this element does not only influence the character but also influences the whole story. Indeed, this moves the plot; for example, the decision of the character to face the main conflict and try to solve it moves the story from the climax to the falling action and then the resolution.
