The correct answer is B. To help you offer constructive comments rather than unintentionally hurtful ones.

Step-by-step explanation:

The word empathy refers to the ability to place oneself in someone else position, this means empathy is about understanding the motivation, feelings, and situation of another person, which leads to an emotional understanding and care of other people. In the case of peer review which is a type of review in which students or peers check and evaluate each other's work such as texts or presentations, empathy is an important element. This can be explained as placing in the other's position help you to understand why he or she decided to include certain elements or complete the task assigned in a certain way, also, by being empathetic you will be aware of the emotions of the other and the effort they put on the work evaluated even if it has mistakes or things they should improve. In this way, by knowing the other's feelings, effort and position your comment would be positive or constructive and will help your peer to improve the work rather than making your peer feel bad with destructive or hurtful comments.
