The correct answer is letter D.

Explanation: Like attitudes in general, prejudice has three components: beliefs; feelings and behavioral tendencies. Prejudiced beliefs are always negative stereotypes.

Human beings are "cognitive misers" who try to simplify and organize their social thinking as much as possible. Exaggerated simplification leads to mistaken, stereotyped thoughts, prejudice and discrimination.
