Final answer:

The question seems to pertain to literature, focusing on the character Trevor's objection to his mother's potential marriage to Abel. While the context isn't fully explained, societal and personal conflicts, evidenced by resistance to societal norms and the repercussions of fame, seem to be significant factors in such situations. The broader theme appears to center on the complex interplay between personal choice and societal expectation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The specific context for Trevor's reluctance for his mother to marry Abel is not provided in the question. However, in literature, characters may resist certain marriages for various reasons.

If we consider the reasons listed, it's possible to deduce that the closest related information provided from the reference texts hints towards resentment or resistance due to deeper societal or personal issues, rather than personal dislikes, age differences, or tribal affiliations.

For example, the reference to an individual not desiring the hereditary evil and the battle against predetermined societal structures suggests that personal and societal conflicts are at the core of such resistance. It is not purely a matter of personal feeling but a confrontation with deep-rooted issues.

From the given selections -- c) because his fame disconnects him from society, and d) because he is challenging socially accepted norms -- we can infer that the resistance could stem from the challenges of opposing societal conventions or the disconnect caused by fame.

In the context of the question about why Trevor doesn't want his mom to marry Abel, an analysis of personal struggles with societal pressures or familial legacy could provide insight. The reference to the 'power elite' and how fame might protect an individual from retribution may align with the idea that certain privileges or familial pressures can influence personal decisions and social relationships.
