Explanation:
An external conflict is when a character faces conflict or a dilemma between himself and the surrounding, be it against other characters, or the situation, nature, or even any factor that hinders his path. This struggle between the character and any outside force that prevents his movement becomes an external conflict.
Chapter 12 of the epic "The Odyssey" by Homer presents the main character Odysseus and his men continuing their journey, passing through the Sirens' songs and coming upon the island of the Sun god. And the three external conflicts that Odysseus faced in this chapter are that he struggles to break free of the ties that bind him while listening to the songs of the Sirens, then faced an attack by Scylla and Charybdis. After passing through, they came upon the island of the Sun-god which Odysseus remembers to avoid from the warning of Circe. But he was opposed and given an insolent answer by Eurylochus.
Thus, the <u>correct answers are options b, e, and f</u>.
