Answer:

The correct answer is Antigone's decision to defy Creon's orders and bury her brother.

Explanation:

In plays, <em>rising action</em> is what comes after the <em>exposition </em>(introduction) and before <em>conflict </em>- therefore, it presents us with characters and events that will take place in the <em>conflict </em>part of the play. <em>Rising action</em> shows us what happened that led to the <em>conflict</em>.

In Antigone, the protagonist decided to disobey Creon by burying her brother, which later on leads to the conflict for Creon: he has to decide whether he wants to help his relative, Antigone, or whether to uphold the law that he as a ruler made.
