Answer:

The other person is actually incorrect, it should be "Act 4."

Explanation:

Act III demonstrates the climax, not the falling action, and therefore it should be the act following the peak of conflict (but not 5, as that contains the resolution). I also got it correct on the test using this answer. I hope this helps!
