Answer 1

The Answer is Option C.

Answer 2

c. It was the first to warn that technology could be harmful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" is one of the most earliest novels on science fiction. Shelley shows the protagonist's use of science and laboratory to make a new living thing, a monster in the eyes of the other characters. It is a much better version of the previous novels' fantastical use of science in their stories. The previous novels weren't in the same level as with how Shelley employs the mechanics of science in hers.

"Frankenstein" is a story about a scientist Victor Frankenstein's creation of a hideous and monstrous human from the various parts of dead human beings. His process was an unorthodox method of science that resulted in the very monster that will eventually cause the deaths of many, including it's creator. Through this novel, Shelley broke new ground in the writing of a novel depicting the dangerous nature of technology.
