- B. Self Esteem
- C. Empowerment/Authority
- D. Self preservation
Answer: D
Explanation:
Section: (none) Explanation/Reference: This is slightly confusing. By the process of elimination, we know (based on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs - Physiological, Safety, Social, Self-Esteem and Self-Actualization) that "Safety" is the second level.

Empowerment or authority (even though not part of Maslow's theory) is still not something that would have already been satisfied for someone who is still trying to meet basic physiological needs of food, shelter and clothing. This leaves only `C' Self-preservation. To me, self-preservation represents the high end of the Physiological needs and the low end of the Safety need. Hence 103 http even though I would choose `C', it does not seem like a clear-cut answer. It just seems to be the best choice.
