Answer 1

The theory on emotion originating from Charles Darwin's work is the Darwinian theory, which is related to the facial feedback theory. The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The theory on emotion that originated from the work of Charles Darwin is known as the Darwinian theory of emotion. Darwin's work laid the foundation for the facial feedback theory, which posits that the act of forming a facial expression elicits the corresponding emotion in the person.

This theory is closely related to the idea that emotions can be understood through the observation of physical changes, particularly facial expressions, which Darwin explored in his work on the expression of emotions in humans and animals. The correct option is A.
