How does Caesar’s assassination in act 3.1 affect the plot development of the play?

Caesar’s assassination is the play’s turning point, or climax: it changes the course of events and leads to conflict over who will control Rome. Rather than resolving the problems, the murder leaves Rome without its leader and the public frightened and unsettled. Therefore, the correct choice is “It is the turning point, or climax, of the play.”
