    Jennifer falls under D. Objective morality

    Explanation:

    Piaget wanted to understand how children think, understand their morality. Objective morality is understood as the belief that morality is universal, that it cannot be interpreted. It is understood as general and existing in nature.

    In this case, Jennifer believes her lying was the cause of her injury, which was her punishment. Her way of thinking is that morality exists in nature and that it happens. It was not her parents' punishment but a general one.

    Answer:D) Objective morality

    Explanation:What is Objective Morality? Objective morality, this is morality that is considered to be universal and isn't up for a debate.

    Some considers this kind of morality as a Goldy commandment which defines rules that one needs to follow to avoid certain consequences.

    Some defines it according to what God has commanded people to do and not to do and some plainly on basic rules such as killing someone being a bad thing to most people around the world.

    Objective morality considers thing that we naturally consider good and bad.

    Jennifer believes the same as most people if you do wrong or lie you are likely to be punished for your wrong doings.
