Question

what causes victor’s lips to quiver and his heart to palpitate in chapter 19 of mary shelleys frankenstein?

thoughts of his work

the cold

happiness

illness

Explanation:

In Chapter 19 of Frankenstein, Victor's physical reactions (quivering lips, palpitating heart) stem from his anxious, guilt-ridden thoughts about creating the female companion for his monster—his "work" that haunts him with moral and existential dread. The other options (cold, happiness, illness) do not align with the chapter's focus on his torment over his scientific endeavors.

Answer:

thoughts of his work
