Detailed explanation-3: -The plot is what happens in a story. However, a plot is not a simple sequence of events. A strong plot is centered on one moment-an interruption of a pattern, a turning point, or an action-that raises a dramatic question, which must be answered throughout the course of the story. This is also known as plot A.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: The plot is, arguably, the most important element of a story. It is literally the sequence of events and, in that sequence, we learn more about the characters, the setting, and the moral of the story. In a way, the plot is the trunk from which all the other elements of a story grow.
