Question 29 • NY-Common Core ELA 12
Jekyll’s conflict between his respectable identity and his darker impulses is never truly resolved while he is alive. His experiments only intensify the struggle, and Hyde eventually takes over; the conflict ends with Jekyll’s death. Carew’s death does not settle the conflict, and Utterson does not witness Jekyll transform. The correct statement is that Jekyll’s struggle is resolved only by his death.
