Answer:

The attraction theory.

Step-by-step explanation:

The theory that best explains what drew Keith and Carla together is the attraction theory. According to the attraction theory, there are three main types of attraction. The physical attraction that is based on looks, Social attraction that is based on someone's personality and the task attraction that is based on the abilities and skills. One person might feel one type of attraction above the others. Four elements attract people, appearance, proximity, mere-exposure effect, and similarity. Keith was attracted to Carla because of her appearance and because they have similar tastes as they are both interested in distance running.
