Answer 1

Answer:

Id  

Explanation:

The id is the part of the personality. It was proposed by Sigmund Freud. It is the first principle of personality that present at birth in a child. Id work on the pleasure principle.

If a child does not satisfy his needs he starts making temper tantrums. At the stage of Id, a child thinks about himself. He wants everything that he desires. The child does not think that his father has money or not. He just wants things that he demanded. He just wants to gratify his pleasure.
