Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: When the body is in a state of need, a person experiences a feeling of tension or pressure. Freud's theory is therefore a homeostatic approach, meaning that we are motivated to restore and maintain a condition of physiological equilibrium, or balance, to keep the body free of tension.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: When the body is in a state of need, the person experiences a feeling of tension or
pressure. The aim of an instinct is to satisfy the need and thereby reduce the tension.
