Sagot :

Answer:

A. Blood is thicker than water.

Explanation:

The actions displayed by Antigone proved that she valued family relationships and would be a great supporter of the fact that blood is thicker than water. First, she accompanied her blind father as he went into exile and finally died. Then, while returning, she saw her brothers, Eteocles and Polyneices fighting and she tried to reconcile them as well. When the two bothers were killed by their Uncle Creon, Eteocles was buried while Polyneices was left unburied. Antigone secretly buried him.

When the King got to know about this, he ordered her execution but she hanged herself. These antecedents prove indeed that Antigone was a firm believer in the adage that 'Blood is thicker than water'. She sacrificed for her loved ones.
