Answer:a.the altruistic provision

Explanation:

What Is Altruism?

Altruism occurs when we care more about others well being and we do things that show that we are concerned about their well being.

When we see people in very devastating conditions we are likely to act altruistically and show our empathy towards those people by actual doing something that may assist them.

We put aside our personal cost and look forward to helping someone in need knowing the thrill we will feel afterwards.
