a. antigone is engaged to creon’s son, haemon.
b. eteocles is buried with honors.
c. ismene refuses to her sister bury polyneices.
d. creon becomes king.

The answer is B) Eteocles is buried with honors

Explanation:

This situation highlights the conflict between loyalty to family and civil obedience because the King, Creon, criticizes the fact that Antigone honors her brother Polynices equally as she did with her brother Eteocles. The king forbade Eteocles to be buried because he was considered a traitor. However, Antigone went against his words and buried him. She maintained her loyalty to family and disobeyed the King's command.
