Answer:

a. he knows that if he says Mercutio started the fight, then the prince will be less sympathetic to him.

Explanation:

This is the most accurate answer. At the beginning of the scene, when Tybalt walks in, it is Mercutio who taunts him. However, as the fighting begins, both Mercutio and Tybalt end up dead. When Benvolio retells the story to the Prince, after Romeo has escaped, he avoids mentioning that Mercutio was the one who started the fight. Instead, he focuses on how Romeo wanted to maintain the peace. It is likely that Benvolio does so because otherwise the Prince would be less sympathetic to him.

labwork [276]

It is a true statement that despite the natural law that states "all men are created equal" laid the foundation for the country's independence, such was not applied to the blacks before the 20th centuries.

<h3>What were the discrimination faced by the blacks?</h3>

The African Americans were deprived of the right to vote, equal education and other civil rights despite the upholding that all men are created equal.

However, the enactment of the Federal civil right Act and Voting Right Act made a successful attempt at abolishing the undue discrimination among the people.

In conclusion, the result of the law has significantly reduced the discriminatory act between the races.
