<h2>Answer:</h2>

Negative punishment - a type of punishment where the <u>C. removal</u> of a rewarding creates decrease in the tendency of a particular response.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When a reward that is available for a human being is forcefully removed as a punishment for his/her foul behavior, the human understands that his wrong behavior can cost him a loss of reward. This makes the human cease his foul behavior and behave in a manner that is right and lawful.

For example, when two kids fight for the same toy, the teacher or mother takes the toy away from the children. This changes the behavior of the children and also creates a fear among the children that this type of behavior will lead to the some loss.
