Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
When the needs for affection and security are met in infancy, all of the above responses occur. The proprium develops as the child's sense of self and personal identity emerges, motives become functionally autonomous as the child's desires and motivations become more independent and self-directed, and unique traits develop as the child's individual characteristics and personality emerge.
