There is plenty to help you develop the idea of her INNOCENCE.
Rather than pushover, however, I think I'd concentrate on her OBEDIENCE to her father. It's considered a main facet of her character.
I agree also with EMOTIONAL, but you'd need to be very specific. The term "emotional" is quite broad, and you'd need to support this characterization with plenty of quotes from the text.

What does this mean? And look at my points to see if I'm on the right track or not (this is from Hamlet).
"Identify and explain how Act 3 Scene i develops Ophelia's character."
Points:
Innocent, Pushover, Emotional

Emotional as in she has gone mad or she has been hurt by Hamlet's words
Her madness and ultimate suicide are the results of being pushed and pulled and used by the men in her life -- her father, brother, and boyfriend. What emotions did she display? What lines from the text prove these?
If you're going to say she's emotional, then you'll need to state WHICH EMOTIONS are involved.
