Option 1 -> (D), (C), (B), (A) follows the correct ascending order: Physiological → Safety → Affiliation → Esteem, which aligns with Maslow's hierarchy from basic to higher-level needs.
Option 2 -> (A), (C), (B), (D) incorrectly places Esteem needs first and Physiological needs last, which reverses the hierarchy.
Option 3 -> (B), (A), (D), (C) incorrectly starts with Affiliation needs and places Physiological needs third, violating the fundamental structure.
Option 4 -> (C), (B), (D), (A) incorrectly places Physiological needs third instead of first, disrupting the basic-to-higher progression.
Hence, Option 1: (D), (C), (B), (A) -> According to Maslow's Need Hierarchy Theory, needs are arranged from most basic to highest level: Physiological needs (survival), Safety needs (security), Affiliation needs (belonging/social), and Esteem needs (recognition). This sequence represents the progressive satisfaction of human needs. -> correct
