Davin Harris · Answer 1

An external conflict is a conflict that is not internal, which means, it is not a conflict in which one person can't decide between some options, but rather when there is a conflict between some individuals.

The correct answer is C. A retired lawyer comes back to court to fight a new young lawyer in a case that will save the home of a needy family.

The other options are all internal conflicts.
