Answer:
a.inability to act
Explanation:
A tragic flaw is a common element in Shakespearean plays. In these, heroes are remarkable and admirable. However, they are flawed, and they tend to have one particular flaw that leads to their downfall. In the case of Hamlet, this flaw is his indecisiveness and his inability to act. Although Hamlet knows that he needs to avenge his father's death, he continues to find reasons to postpone this, until the situation is too complicated for him to get out of it with few consequences.
The correct option is [tex]\boxed{\text{inability to act}}[/tex].
Further Explanation:
The conflict which arises in the mind of Hamlet was because of his awareness about the truth. He already knew about his father's murderer but he felt trapped between awareness and action. This gave rise to his inability to act. Hamlet's tragic flaw was the result of his inability to act during the situation. He wanted to kill Claudius but it was the moment when he was praying. Hamlet didn't want to kill him at that point of time as it would take him to heaven. Also, he was very angry with his mother who had immediately married his uncle and his father's murderer. He wanted to kill his mother too but was unable to do it. He also got suicidal instincts from his inner self but he didn't opt it. He was unable to decide on what action he should choose. He didn't want to kill Claudius and be called a murderer too. This inability to act and decide forms the tragic flaw in the play. Amidst all the fear and uncertainty of decision, the ghost of his father asks him to murder Claudius. On the other hand, he stands on the position on which he finds everything blurred and jumbled up to take any decision.
