Answer:

Tybalt is ready to fight and Lord Capulet is less impulsive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tybalt wants to fight Romeo for him embarrassing Romeo's appearance at the masquerade party. Tybalt wants revenge due to Romeo "crashing" the party. Hopefully, you will be able to read the portion where Lord Capulet states that Tybalt is "saucy", or as we would say, he has a temper. Tybalt just cannot get over the fact that Romeo was at the ball. Just so you know, Romeo kills Tybalt. Romeo kills in revenge and he is going to be banished!
