    • In a bed.

    Correct Answer
    A. In a coffin.
    Explanation
    Count Dracula always lays in a coffin during the day because he is a vampire and is believed to be undead. Vampires are said to be nocturnal creatures that cannot withstand sunlight, so they seek shelter in coffins to avoid exposure to daylight. This is a common depiction of vampires in folklore and popular culture, including Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula." The coffin provides a dark and secure resting place for Count Dracula during daylight hours, allowing him to rest and rejuvenate before emerging at night to feed on blood.

    Explanation
    Lucy becomes a vampire because in Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula," Lucy is bitten by Count Dracula and subsequently transformed into a vampire. This transformation occurs after she sleepwalks and is found by her friend, Mina, with bite marks on her neck. Lucy's transformation into a vampire is a pivotal event in the story, as it leads to the formation of a group of vampire hunters, including Van Helsing, who are determined to stop Dracula's reign of terror.
