Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The basic components of emotion are expressive behaviors (such as facial expressions), physiological arousal (such as increased heart rate), and conscious experience (such as subjective feelings). Choice A is incorrect because while sympathetic arousal (activating the fight-or-flight response) and parasympathetic inhibition (reducing bodily functions) can be involved in emotion, cognitive labeling is not necessarily a basic component. Choice B is incorrect because while physical gestures and psychological drives can be related to emotion, they are not considered basic components. Choice D is incorrect because while cognition (thinking), affect (emotions), and behavior can be involved in emotion, they are not considered basic components.

The basic components of emotion are

A) sympathetic arousal,parasympathetic inhibition,and cognitive labeling.
B) physical gestures,facial expressions,and psychological drives.
