A) water
B) sleep
C) achievement
D) money

Answer 1

D) Money

Step-by-step explanation:

Why?

Because we obviously all need A) Water and B) Sleep in order to be healthy and motivated.

The Importance of Sleeping:

Not only that but sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life. Getting enough quality sleep at the right times can help protect your mental health, physical health, quality of life, and safety. ... During sleep, your body is working to support healthy brain function and maintain your physical health

Now it can't be C) Achievement because, in order to be motivated there must be a sense of pride and accomplishment or else you may not feel like doing your assignment (example).

It must be D) Money for two reasons; one we already eliminated the other answers and two Money at the end of the day is a very dirty piece of paper.

(Also make sure you read fine print when you sign something.... Life lessons people!!!!! Trust me this is also a life skill!)

Hope this helps!!!!

Answer 2

D) money

Step-by-step explanation:

Motivation: In psychology, the term "motivation" is defined as an individual's urge or desire to act or behave in a specific way that tends to satisfy a few situations, for example, goals, wishes, and desires. According to various psychologists, motivation is being rooted in the impulse to increase an individual's well-being, maximize pleasure, and minimize an individual's physical pain.

In the question above, Daria is being motivated by money irrespective of the fact that it is not considered a need because with money there can be various things that can be fulfilled.
