Answer:

B) athletes

Explanation:

Considering the lifestyles of athletes, we can assume that associating with them should reduce the risk of victimization. Athletes tend to work out during the day or the afternoons and tend to rest at night. They also smoke less and consume less alcohol and other types of drugs.

The lifestyle theory of victimology states that the chances of an individual suffering from a crime depend heavily on their own lifestyle. For example, most crimes happen at night, so people who like to hang out at night are more likely to suffer some type of victimization.  

This theory also states that the percentage of criminals is very small (compared to society as a whole) and their crimes are unevenly distributed. This creates places with high risk of criminal occurrence. The lifestyle of individuals can determine the likelihood of being a victim or being a criminal specially through exposure to certain situations.

Here, two responses are available which are left key, 60 reinforcers per hour, and right key, 20 reinforcers per hour. This provides the ratio between the two reinforcers which is 60:20 or 3:1 in favor of left key. Here, one has to make a prediction only for left key and based on 3:1 ratio it can be said that 75% of pigeon will make their responses on the left key.
