Answer:

The correct answer is d) reinforcement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reinforcement is a technique widely used in psychology in the current behaviorism. Reinforcement is a stimulus that is used to increase the likelihood of a behavior repeating itself.

In the case of animals, obtaining food (reinforcement) when they are aggressive (behavior) causes this behavior to occur more frequently because they associate being fierce with obtaining food.
