Answer to Question 1

C
Situational losses include loss from sudden, unpredictable external events such as a hurricane that destroys one's home or city. Necessary losses, such as leaving friends after high school graduation, are a natural part of life. Such losses usually are replaced by something different or better. Some necessary losses are more difficult and never seem acceptable, such as the loss of a loved one through death. Life goes on, but replacements for these losses do not appear. Maturational losses include changes that occur as a part of normal life development. For instance, a parent feels loss when a child marries and moves away from home. Perceived losses are interpreted uniquely by the individual and often are not obvious to others. For example, one person perceives failure to get into a preferred college as a loss of all opportunity, while another person views the same experience as a relief.
