Answer: Option A

Explanation: As per the maslow's theory of motivation an individual can be motivated to perform his job by satisfying his or her needs in an order. When the first need satisfies he cannot be motivated further from it.

However some of the theorists do not believe this theory and suggest that even the basic needs of an individual could be used as a continuous motivator for a long time.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
