Which situation is an example of an external conflict? a. a young princess must choose between leaving the kingdom to find adventure or staying home to be the daughter her father thinks she should be. b. a champion swimmer must deal with his growing disgust about being submerged in water with other people. c. a young boy on a fishing trip with his father must get the boat back to shore after his father becomes ill during the trip. d. a fast-food employee struggles with the decision to give her friends free food when the manager isn't working.

Hi!

The correct option would be C.

An external conflict is a predicament where the person has to battle with an outside factor, which may be a force of nature, an animal, another person, the weather etc. External conflict may more often than not involve a physical exertion. This is opposed to internal conflicts where an individual has to struggle against a belief, a notion, or an impulse etc - a conflict with oneself. Such as choosing between two pair of dresses would be an internal conflict, and a brawl, or an argument would be an external conflict.

Option C is hence correct as it involves a physical struggle that requires a young boy to guide the boat back to shore, where the conflict is with a force of nature, i.e a water body.

Option A, B and D all deal with the individual in concern's internal conflicts.

Hope this helps!
