Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Complications are things that get in the way of your protagonist pursuing his or her goal. These complications can be people, places, things, or events, and they can be negative or positive.

Detailed explanation-2: -For example, in the story I’m plotting, in one scene the main character (MC) needs to knead bread. What could I make happen that would prevent him from being able to knead bread? That’s the right question because his inability to do the kneading would complicate this plot nicely.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main conflict in a story may be external (between characters and other characters or characters and their environment) or internal (a struggle within) or may combine external and internal elements. This primary conflict is typically what drives action towards the story’s climax.

Detailed explanation-4: -In a story, conflict is any moment where the protagonist of the story wants something, but someone, something, or the world around them is standing in their way. Often this is another character who either wants the same thing as the protagonist or wants something that’s in direct opposition.
