Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chayim's loneliness is a biological need, as humans have a basic need for social interaction. Calling his friend to go to dinner is a motivated behavior driven by the need to alleviate his loneliness, making it a drive. Therefore, option A is the best choice as it correctly identifies Chayim's loneliness as a need and calling his friend as a drive. Option B and C are incorrect as they mix up the meanings of incentive and goal. Option D is incorrect as it reverses the meanings of drive and need.
