Answer 1

hey

I think it is the James Lang theory as it states that this theory proposes that people have a physiological response to environmental stimuli and that their interpretation of that physical response then results in an emotional experience.

Answer 2

The answer to this question is option b.  

It is because the james-lange theory supports the fact that a person who goes skydiving for the first time is likely to feel fear before the activity, followed by relief after completing the activity.

It suggests that the emotions happen because of the physiological reactions to the events. It proposes that individuals have some physiological response to the environmental stimuli.
