Which statement best describes how Mr. Jekyll’s view of transformation changes throughout the story?

At first, Jekyll sees transforming into Hyde as a scientific achievement that lets him separate his respectable self from his darker impulses. As the story progresses, Hyde becomes harder to control, and Jekyll grows frightened by the consequences of trying to separate himself from morality. This makes him increasingly wary of his ability to defy morality through science. He does not become better able to control Hyde, as choice D suggests.
