Correct Answer Explanation

In Ibsen's A Doll's House, Nora Helmer is the central protagonist. Mrs. Linde (Kristine) serves as her foil — a contrast and model. While Nora has lived a sheltered, dependent life, Kristine Linde has experienced financial hardship, independence, and self-reliance. Through her friendship with Kristine, Nora comes to recognise her own capacity for independent thought and ultimately leaves her husband.
