Ella Frank · Answer 1

The correct answer is C. Physiological needs

Explanation:

In Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, there are five different levels. In the case of physiological needs, these are on the first level, this means, they are the most basic needs and if these are not met other needs will not be met. Physiological needs include food, water, shelter, and even clothes that are necessary for you as a living organism.

Seamus is having trouble meeting his physiological needs because due to lack of education and skill he can only earn a minimum wage and a result of this, he finds difficult to pay rent and bills which means shelter and utilities such as water or electricity are at risk and also he is not eating as he should so his need for food is not completely fulfilled.
