Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The cyclical pattern of most domestic violence suggests that it is not a constant, unceasing phenomenon. It involves periods of escalating tension, followed by an explosive violent incident, and then a period of reconciliation, before the cycle begins again. This pattern applies to both men and women in abusive relationships.
