C
. “The same social psychological processes… that acted in the Stanford Prison Experiment were at play at Abu Ghraib, Zimbardo argued.” ( Paragraph 16)

Explanation:
Zimbardo claims that the line between good and evil is permeable, meaning that people are not born “good” or “evil”. On the contrary, everyone can cross that line, especially under certain circumstances. For example, the soldiers´ mental state and the lack of supervision, training, or accountability led to the abuse of an Iraqi prisoner in Abu Ghraib.
