Final answer:

In the aftermath of the 1972 Andes plane crash, survivors dealt with leadership, tensions between goals, and maintaining hope, but managing differing personalities wasn't mentioned as a basic issue that emerged.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to a real event, the 1972 Andes plane crash involving Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, where survivors faced extreme conditions. Identifying a worthy leader, dealing with tensions between individual and group goals, and keeping hope alive in the face of adversity were indeed real issues confronted by these survivors. However, dealing with the different needs and personalities of group members was not one of the basic issues that the question touched upon. That is to say, while personality differences were inevitably present and needed to be managed, the option does not specifically represent an issue that 'emerged' among the survivors. The primary concerns related directly to survival and ensuring that the group worked together towards rescue and staying alive.
