Answer:

Jung

Step-by-step explanation:

In Jung's version of the personality theory the archetypes represent universal patterns and images that are part of the collective unconscious. According to him we inherit these archetypes much the way we inherit instinctive patterns of behavior.

The collective unconscious refers to the idea that a partof the deepest unconscious mind is genetically inherited and is not shaped by personal experience.
