A) Large airy windows
B) Personal drawers and closets
C) Consistent placement of the furniture

B
Feedback:
Personal drawers and closets permit residents to take care of their own possessions, thus allowing them to feel secure. This demonstrates the basic need of security on Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Large airy windows do not demonstrate any of the basic needs. Consistent placement of furniture demonstrates the basic need of trust. Comfortable couches and rocking chairs demonstrate the basic need of love.
