The correct answer is A. Their love is based on both physical and emotional attraction.

Explanation:

The excerpt shows a dialogue between Romeo and Julie; in this, their attraction is evident as they both want to kiss and touch each other, this can be seen in details such as "My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss" or "And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss" that show their physical attraction.

However, there are also references to their emotional attraction as there is a strong emotional connection between them and Romeo compares Julie to a holy shrine "If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this" which show his strong admiration and love for her. Thus, this excerpt reveals the love between these characters involves emotional and physical attraction (Option A.)
