Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is a) evolutionary; behavioral

Explaination:

Achmed believes that men act in a more aggresive manner than women do, because in the past it increased their reproductive chances.

The evolutionary perspective is all about that. It's about learning to adapt to your environment for your own benefit and good. Moreover, the evolutionary perspective claims that, characteristics and traits that were found hundreds of years ago in our ancestors, can resurface in us, their offspring.

Clarisse believes that men act in a more aggressive manner that women do, because they are often rewarded for acting tough and strong.

This ticks all the boxes for the behavioral perspective. The behavioral perspective argues that our behaviors and actions are influenced by environment. If our actions had desirable outcomes they're more likely to occur than if they had undesirable outcomes.
