Question

which statement best describes the resolution of sleeping beauty?
aurora turns 16.
the prince rescues aurora.
the queen throws herself into the pit of reptiles.
maleficent casts a spell.

Explanation:

In the story of "Sleeping Beauty", the main resolution is when the prince's kiss breaks the spell and rescues Aurora from her long - sleep. Aurora turning 16 is part of the setup that leads to the curse, the Queen throwing herself into the pit of reptiles is not a part of the core resolution, and Maleficent casting a spell is the inciting incident, not the resolution.

Answer:

The prince rescues Aurora.
