Answer: c) low agreeableness and low extraversion

Step-by-step explanation:

Low agreeableness is defined as the feature in which a person tends to disagree more on things raised by others and concentrates on his/her need without caring for disputes occurring with other people.

Low extraversion describes that a person is not interested in going out rather wants to spend time with his/her own-self.

According to the question, drinks habit has caused the disorder in Peyton which will result in low agreeableness because he does not care for issues with his girlfriend and work.He will tend to do less outing and stage busy with his own-self.

Other options are incorrect because he will not go for outings more.He will tend to stay close to himself and would not involve with others more. He will perform his duties towards himself and will have focused mind over him rather than being anxious.

Thus, the correct option is option(c).
