Explain how broadcasting in Scratch can be used in a school project where Chloe, Arjun, and Aarav are creating an interactive story. Each character in their story is a sprite that needs to react to events.

• Broadcasting in Scratch allows sprites to communicate and trigger actions in other sprites, making it possible for Chloe, Arjun, and Aarav's characters to interact in their story.

• Broadcasting in Scratch is a tool for creating new sprites from existing ones, which Chloe, Arjun, and Aarav could use to duplicate characters in their story.

• Broadcasting in Scratch is a feature that allows sprites to change their costumes, which could help Chloe, Arjun, and Aarav's characters to change appearances in their story.

• Broadcasting in Scratch is used for sending private messages between sprites, which could allow Chloe, Arjun, and Aarav's characters to share secrets in their story.

Imagine Aiden is creating a digital story in Scratch about a space adventure. What role does the 'when green flag clicked' block play in Aiden's project?
