The correct answer is A. It shows how characters react to or interact with their surroundings

Explanation:

Characterization in literary works refers to the way a character's personality, appearance, and traits are presented to the reader. On the other hand, the setting refers to the context of the story including places, geographical features, social context, and historical context. The setting can support the characterization because the way characters react and interact in their context reveal their personality traits, for example, a character that opposes the values of his/her historical context shows independence and rebellion or a character who faces difficult geographical conditions can be classified as brave. Thus, the setting helps stablish characterization because "it shows how characters react to or interact with their surroundings".
