Answer:

A. Where the individual being helped is likely to return the favor in the future

Step-by-step explanation:

Altruism refers to behaviors that are performed for the sake of benefiting others at a cost to oneself. Reciprocal altruism is when altruistic behaviors are performed because they increase the likelihood of repayment in the future.
