Answer:

The correct answer is: (...) personal unconscious, which is created from our individual experiences, and the collective unconscious, which is identical in each person and is inherited.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl Jung's Theory of the Unconscious distinguishes between the ego (conscious mind), and two layers of the unconscious: the personal unconscious and the collective unconscious.

The personal unconscious is comprised by forgotten information and repressed memories as well as complexes as collections of thoughts, attitudes and memories related to a single concept.

The collective unconscious refers to the part of the deep unconscious mind that is genetically inherited and not influenced by personal experience. It is common to all human beings and is accountable for instincts (such as those related to life and death), sexual behavior and other deeply rooted beliefs.
