Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, your friend is demonstrating trial-and-error, and you're demonstrating insight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trial and error refer to learning something at the time of imparting various options until the accurate one comes up, while insight refers to acquiring something from the previous experience and imparting it afterward. The four different forms of learning dealt in psychology are conditioning, imprinting, trial-and-error learning, and insight learning.
