b. independent of the original five-need hierarchy.
c. acquired and hence need to be groomed through training.
d. less essential for complete personality development.


ANS: A
FEEDBACK: The needs to know and to understand appear in late infancy and early childhood and are expressed by children as a natural curiosity. Because the needs are innate, they do not have to be taught, but the actions of parents and teachers can serve to inhibit a child's spontaneous curiosity.
