Throughout the story, the protagonist Jerry, experiences internal and external conflicts. Using what you've learned from the

character and plot development tutorial, identify an example internal and extemal conflict from the story
Use in-text citations when you identify the conflict.
Example:
Lessing demonstrates conflict when she writes, "Down he went until he touched the wall of rock again. But the salt was so
painful in his eyes that he could not see." (4).
The salt from the eyes is a temporary hardship, a hardship caused by the elements of the ocean. Jerry's predicament is an
example of man vs. nature.​

Answer:

I have no clue if you still need help on this, but I was looking for the answer myself and decided to just give a hand while I also try and figure this out </3

We can use the example given in the description, following along with a few others.

Looking further into the story, we can also notice that the author had added "He could see nothing through the stinging salt water but the blank rock." this is a temporary problem, the salt being one of the problems he couldn't see all that well.

I'm about to recite a whole part of the story, but there is also a major problem when the boy is finding himself drowning and yelling for help. But, to put it shorter, the author had given Herry another problem. "Water surged into his mouth; he choked, sank, came up. The rock, lately weighted with boys, seemed to rear up out of the water as their weight was removed."

He had then started to think that the others were drowning beneath him. This gives him a serge of panic, adding onto the other problem at hand. "At fifty, he was terrified. They must all be drowning beneath him, in the watery caves of the rock!"

Step-by-step explanation:

my semester ends tomorrow and i'm in a rush, so this was very quick and few ideas to help, that is; if it was any </3

hope it helped !! stay safe hun !
