The correct answer is A (high-pitched tense music to contrast the comedy)
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Slapstick is a style of cleverness including misrepresented physical action which surpasses the limits of ordinary physical comedy. The term emerges from a gadget created amid the wide, physical satire style known as Commedia dell'arte in Sixteenth-Century Italy.
The "slapstick" comprises two thin braces of wood, which make a 'slap' when striking another on-screen character, with little power expected to make an uproarious—and clever—sound. The physical droll remains a key segment of the plot in the customary and well-known Punch and Judy manikin appear.
