Answer:

Arousal theory

Explanation:

One of the motivational theories is known as the arousal theory. The arousal theory explains that the individual performs certain actions to maintain their physiological arousal level. Such arousal level pushes the individual to opt for certain activities which would prove to be exciting and which would stimulate their thoughts. To attain a higher level of arousal people attempt to do exciting activities, while people with a lower level of arousal level look for relaxing and soothing activities. In the above situation, Leo and Lila attempted to murder the child to attain a higher level of arousal.

QveST [7]

Answer: D) “Now many people use low-calorie sugar substitutes to control their weight” (Kowalsky 19).

Explanation: when quoting a source in a paper or an essay, we need to cite that source in the correct way. According to MLA the format to write a parenthetical cite is to write the last name of the author of the source (book, article, etc.) followed by the number of the page from which we got the quote, this two elements must be in parentheses, and if it is the end of a sentence or a paragraph, the period must be after the last parentheses, also the cite isn't part of the quotation, so it must not be included in the quotation marks. The option that follows this format correctly is “Now many people use low-calorie sugar substitutes to control their weight” (Kowalsky 19).
