Answer:The quote that best supports the answer to part A is:
B. There was none among the myriads of men that existed who would pity or assist me.
In Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", the scientist Victor Frankenstein gives life to a monster he created with parts of different human bodies.
The monster, however, like a normal human being, has feelings and emotional needs.
Since the monster is unable to connect with others at an emotional level, he begins to hate humankind and to kill.
His purpose is to kill those Frankenstein loves as a punishment for having been created by him.
When the monster says in Chapter 16 "none among the myriads of men that existed. . . would pity or assist me," he is justifying his actions.
Why should he pity the humans he has killed if none of them has ever pitied him? Why should he be kind when no one has ever been kind to him? The lack of love and support prevented him from developing good conscience.
In conclusion, the quote above supports the idea that a person needs structure and support in order to form a good conscience and proper identity.
