Question : Assertion: Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory categorizes needs into five levels.
Reason: Maslow's theory suggests that physiological needs must be satisfied before higher-level needs can be pursued.
Option 1: Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Option 2: Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
Option 3: Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
Option 4: Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
Correct Answer: Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Solution : The correct answer is (a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Assertion is true. Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a psychological theory that categorizes human needs into five levels, usually depicted as a pyramid.
Reason is also true and is a fundamental aspect of Maslow's theory. Maslow proposed that individuals need to satisfy basic physiological needs (e.g., food, water, shelter) before focusing on higher-level needs like safety, social belonging, esteem, and self-actualization.
Therefore, the Reason provides a correct explanation for the Assertion.
