Answer:

B. Psychologists are unable to agree if true altruism exists, but they believe several  factors could be encouraging people to act in seemingly selfless ways.

Explanation:

In the informational text "Altruism: Why We Risk Our Own Well-Being to Help Others", Kendra Cherry talks about what it is that made people do good deeds even without any repayment. The text delves into the various factors that may be responsible for this altruistic behavior of humans.

Cherry talks about why man does what he does even without the prospect of getting anything back. Psychologists think that these selfless services tend to be an act out of one's desire to help others as a way of helping oneself in return. Despite the numerous reasons for this altruism, psychologists still believe that true and pure altruism is possible in man. This very act of helping others, lending a helping hand would nevertheless help in bringing about a happier place.
