The rising action follows the part of the plot known as the exposition (in which the world of the story and its characters are established), and precedes the climax. Every story has a section that can be described as the "rising action," even if the story has an unconventional narrative or plot structure.
Exposition is the beginning of a story and rising action is that the reader is aware of the conflict the protagonist is facing.
Explanation:
Exposition goes before rising action btw. Exposition: The beginning of a story offers exposition. You are introduced to the characters and it prepares you for events that are about to take place. RISING ACTION: aware of the conflict the protagonist is facing and the antagonist who is causing the conflict. Events that build an intensity in a story.
