Answer:

a. They represent the cycle of life.

Explanation:

"The Masque of the Red Death" is a story by Edgar Allan Poe. This plot revolves around a fictional plague that is sweeping through the land. The main character, Prince Prospero, and some nobles are seen hiding from the plague in an abbey. In the abbey, there are seven rooms, color coded and arranged from east to west. The seventh is a creepy black and scarlet decorated room, which everyone avoids until the end of the story.The rooms of this abbey are symbolic of the cycles of life, blue (birth), purple (youth), green (adolescent), orange (adulthood), white (old age), violet (imminent death) and black/scarlet (death).
