Answer:

I believe the best answer to be letter C. Friar Laurence versus the unknown.

Explanation:

A conflict in literature is an element that involves the struggle between two opposing forces. Conflicts are what make a story interesting and they are always, directly or indirectly, connected to the main characters. There are several types of conflict, such as man versus self, man versus nature, and man versus technology.

In Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet", Friar Laurence sends out a letter to warn Romeo about Juliet's fake death. The letter is supposed to be delivered by Friar John, but he ends up quarantined due to the possibility of exposure to the plague. This conflict is a man versus the unknown one - when the character struggles with an unknown force or lack of certainty. There is no way for Friar Laurence to know what will happen to the letter after he hands it over to someone else. There is no certainty that it will ever be delivered; various circumstances may prevent it. He can only hope for the best, but there isn't much he can do to achieve the desired outcome. As we know, fate intervenes, and the letter doesn't reach Romeo in time.

In your own idea, what is the root cause of a riot?​
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Strong beliefs. Most(especially recent) riots have been because of something political. A lot of riots start off as peaceful protests, but due to other factors such as unnecessary force by police and people joining the protests to turn them into riots for their own gain.
