Which of the following is an example of external conflict? Miguel is making his first solo trip up Mount Everest. Tracy wants to
try out for the team, even though it might compromise her grades. Michelle is moving to another state and does not know whether to keep her cat. Helene is forced to choose between her love of music and her desire to try out for the basketball team.
The correct answer is A. Miguel is making his first solo trip up Mount Everest.
Explanation:
An external conflict is a type of conflict in which an individual or character struggle against a force he or she cannot control and therefore is external. This differs from internal conflict because in internal conflict the character struggles with himself or herself, this includes taking important decisions, leading with frustration, achieving personal purposes, etc.
Considering this, the statement that is an example of an external conflict is "Miguel is making his first solo trip up Mount Everest" because in this case the main character Miguel is likely to face difficult weather conditions, a challenging terrain, among other factors that are external and do not depend on Miguel, this implies the conflict is between Miguel and the nature and therefore this is part of an external conflict.
