Answer 2

Answer:

Psychology is the branch of science that studies the mind and behavior.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs helps people understand themselves in a new way.

Explanation:

You haven't provided the passage, but based on the way the question was formalized and the options you were given, I can answer your question anyway.

Because the question asks which statements, we know that there is more than one correct answer. Based on the options, I can conclude that the passage tells about psychology and then about Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing (e.g. article, poem, chapter, novel). It should contain only the text's main ideas and the most important supporting details. The main idea of a text is the main point the author is making.

An objective statement is a statement based on facts. Unlike subjective statements, they are not influenced by a person's personal opinions, beliefs, feelings, or assumptions.

Only these two statements are objective and represent the main ideas:

• Psychology is the branch of science that studies the mind and behavior.

• Maslow's hierarchy of needs helps people understand themselves in a new way.

The rest of the options are supporting details and contain subjective language, which is why they can't be correct.
