Ineed ! how do suspense and tension differ? a. suspense is the climax or the moment of greatest excitement in the story, while tension is the action leading up to a plot's climactic moment. b. suspense is an event that is explained early in a plotting and introduces conflict, while tension is a hint that something is going to happen. c. suspense uses two or more plotlines that eventually intersect to tell a story, while tension uses only a single plotline to explain what happens. d. suspense is the feeling of wanting to know what happens next in a story, while tension is the feeling produced by a story's unresolved conflict.

A suspense is not the climax, since there can be suspense many times before the climax. Tension is not necessarily an action either. Suspense doesn't have to happen early or later, but when it is meant to happen. Also, there's no required number of plot lines. With that, we can discard options A, B and C.

By definition, suspense is: "the feeling of excitement or nervousness that you have when you are waiting for something to happen" and tension is a "mental or emotional strain". Which are really close to their definitions in storytelling:

D. Suspense is the feeling of wanting to know what happens next in a story, while tension is the feeling produced by a story's unresolved conflict.
