(A), (B), (D), (E), (C)

Correct Answer:

(B), (D), (C), (A), (E)

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (1) : (B), (D), (C), (A), (E)

According to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the needs are typically arranged from the most fundamental and basic to the highest level of human needs. The correct order is as follows:

(B) Hunger - This represents physiological or basic survival needs.

(D) Stability of Income - This pertains to safety and security needs.

(C) Friendship - This corresponds to social needs.

(A) Status - Status is related to esteem needs.

(E) Self-fulfillment - Self-fulfillment represents self-actualization needs, which are at the top of the hierarchy

The arrangement of these needs in Maslow's Hierarchy suggests that individuals tend to focus on satisfying lower-level needs (physiological and safety) before moving on to higher-level needs (social, esteem, and self-fulfillment) as they progress in their personal development and well-being. Once a lower-level need is relatively satisfied, individuals are more motivated to pursue needs at the next level in the hierarchy.
