The child would immediately leave the class and have food.
2
The child would ask the permission of the teacher and then
have food.

food.
4
The child would not have food unless the child goes back to
the home. - Correct Answers ✅The child would
immediately leave the class and have food.
The id obeys the pleasure principle of immediate gratification
of needs. In this situation, the child is hungry. If the id
personality is predominant, then the child would immediately
go and have food without asking the teacher's permission.
The ego functions as a controlling of self and finds realistic
means of gratification of the need. If the ego predominates,
then the child would ask the teacher for permission and then
have food. The superego functions as an ideal and prevents
the individual from expressing instincts. Therefore, waiting for
the teacher to ask the child to eat food and not having food
unless the child goes back home are behaviors suggesting a
superego personality.
