Answer:

c. superego

Step-by-step explanation:

Id, ego, and superego are the three components of the psychoanalytic theory of personality of Freud. Id refers to the pleasure principle, ego refers to the reality principle and superego to moral. The rules, regulations and the guidelines which the society and the family suppress the urges of the id and initiate the ego to behave morally. This is said to be superego. The right and wrong and the morals and values all start to work in this stage of life.
