a) external action: the arrival of a rescue ship to save ana.
b) discovery: the emergence of a meaningful signal (the sos) from the background noise.
c) character decision: ana’s choice to fix the discommunciating unit and commit to staying.
d) dialogue: a full conversation ana has with the source of the sos.
e) symbolic change: ana’s role transforming from that of a “lonely ghost” to a “discoverer” indicating a complete internal shift.
f) flashback: a detailed scene showing who originally sent the sos decades ago

Explanation:

To determine the central elements for the narrative's turning point:

• B (Discovery): The SOS signal is a key plot trigger.
• C (Character Decision): Ana’s choice to stay drives her purpose.
• E (Symbolic Change): Her title shift shows internal growth, resolving the narrative.

A (external action) is a trigger but not central to resolution; D (dialogue) is partial, F (flashback) is backstory, not central to the turning point’s resolution.

Answer:

B. Discovery: The emergence of a meaningful signal (the SOS) from the background noise,
C. Character Decision: Ana’s choice to use the discommuniçating suit and commit to staying,
E. Symbolic Change: Ana’s title transforming from that of a “lonely ghost” to a “discoverer” indicating a complete internal shift.
