The correct answer is a. Reaction Formation.Reaction formation is a defense mechanism where a person replaces an unwanted impulse with its opposite. This means that instead of expressing the undesirable thought or behavior, the individual expresses the opposite of it. For example, if someone has negative feelings towards another person, they might act overly friendly towards them as a way to mask their true feelings. This mechanism helps the individual cope with anxiety or uncomfortable emotions by projecting the opposite behavior or attitude.
