Answer:

Option (d) None of these

Explanation:

Sheldon identified three types of personality and classified individuals according to their somatotypes or body types i.e. Endomorph, Ectomorph, and mesomorph.

  • Endomorphs refer to those who are rounded and soft with a relaxed, peaceful, and comfort-loving character.
  • Ectomorphs are quiet types of people with thoughtful personalities. They are fine-boned and thin.
  • Mesomorphs are with a square and muscular physique with a tendency towards an active, dynamic, and aggressive personality.

Thus, from the above-mentioned data,it is clear that option (a),(b),(c) are incorrect.

It was Ernst Kretschmer who classified the body types into rotund pyknic, muscular athletic, and tall & thin asthenic type.

Hence, it confirms that option (d) is the correct answer.
