Question

The ________ in literature is between the antagonist and another person or force.

a. denouement
b. procession
c. conflict
d. rising action

Answer 1

Conflict I believe.

reason:

The term conflict is used when there fight/struggle between characters. There are several types of conflicts.

1. Man versus Man: which means it is one person against another one, which is the example you gave above.

2. Man Versus Nature: which means that nature is pitted against man...in most cases.

Those are two of several. Hopefully this helped and good luck.
