Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: b. when he learns that Birnam Wood is moving toward the castle. Explanation: In Act V, of “The Tragedy of Macbeth” by William Shakespeare, Macbeth first begins to realize that he has been tricked by the prophecies when he learns that Birnam Wood is moving toward the castle.
Detailed explanation-2: -A servant rushes in with news that Birnam Wood is marching toward Dunsinane. Macbeth rushes to see for himself, and realizes the witches tricked him.
Detailed explanation-3: -Act 5, Scene 5 Back at Dunsinane, Macbeth is getting a little overconfident. Dunsinane is well fortified, and he thinks he can wait out any attempt at a siege. The feeling is short-lived, though. He finds out that his wife has died, and that Birnam Wood is, in fact, marching to Dunsinane.
Detailed explanation-4: -Summary: Act 5, scene 1 Suddenly, Lady Macbeth enters in a trance with a candle in her hand. Bemoaning the murders of Lady Macduff and Banquo, she seems to see blood on her hands and claims that nothing will ever wash it off. She leaves, and the doctor and gentlewoman marvel at her descent into madness.
Detailed explanation-5: -In Act V, what causes Macbeth to realize that he has been misled by the prophecies? Choose two options. The revelation of how Macduff was born, and the news that soldiers carrying boughs from Birnam Wood are approaching.
