Answer 1

Answer:

I think option d is correct

Answer 2

Answer:

Option a - people's behaviour is not based on their needs is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Maslow's theory depicts a pyramid-shaped hierarchy of requirements, with basic needs at the bottom and more high-level, intangible needs at the top. When a person's basic needs have been met, he or she can move on to addressing higher-level requirements.

• Physiological requirements: Physiological needs are the first of Maslow's hierarchy's id-driven bottom demands. The most basic human survival needs include food and drink, proper rest, clothing and shelter, overall health, and reproduction. According to Maslow, these basic physiological wants must be addressed before people may move to the next level of fulfilment.
• The list of lower-level requirements continues with safety standards. Safety includes protection from violence and theft, mental stability and well-being, health security, and financial security.
• The third level of Maslow's hierarchy, social needs, includes desires for love and belonging, are concerned with human connection and are the last of the so-called lower requirements. Friendships and family bonds—both biological and chosen family (parents, siblings, children)—are among these needs (spouses and partners).
• Esteem needs: The higher needs, starting with esteem, are ego-driven. Self-respect (the notion that you are worthwhile and deserving of dignity) and self-esteem are the two most important components of esteem (confidence in your potential for personal growth and accomplishments). This form of self-esteem gives rise to self-assurance and independence.
• Requirements for self-actualization: Self-actualization is the process of realising one's full human potential. Maslow's pyramid is topped by self-actualization needs, also known as self-fulfilment needs. Education, skill development—the honing of abilities in fields like music, athletics, design, cuisine, and gardening—caring for others, and bigger ambitions like learning a new language, travelling to new places, and winning prizes are all examples of self-actualization requirements.

Hence, the behaviour of the people does not depend on their needs is not an assumption of Maslow's theory.
