Answer:

Freud would say that his behavior reflects the fact that Cookie Monster is ruled by his (A) id.

Explanation:

According to the model of the psyche created by Freud, the id is the part of the mind that is impulsed by instincts, containing our most primitive impulses such as those sexual and agressive ones, and it also contains unknown memories. On the other hand, the superego acts as a moral inner voice, whereas the ego is a practical regulator or mediator between what the id wishes and what the superego says must be done.
