Answer:

The correct answer is B. Avoidance.

Explanation:

Avoidance is the act of eliminating one's exposure to risk or hazardous situations or objects.

Bev's route includes a dangerous area which can lead to serious consequences if she passes through it. By avoiding the area, she reduces the possible risks she might be exposing herself to, even if it adds minutes to her commute.
