Answer:

Which of the following will most likely be prescribed for her? C. Melatonin.

Explanation:

Melatonin is a hormone that is involved in the natural sleep cycle. We can find it in our blood, it's levels are higher during the night and is produced by the pineal gland located in the brain.

It is used to treat sleeping disorders such as insomnia or in this particular Fatema's example, jet lag, which is a time zone desynchronization as a result of traveling to different time zones in short periods of time.
