Answer 1

According to the Chegg guidelines, I have to answer only one of the following in the case of MCQs.

The answer is C acceptance, as in this scenario the person is aware of the death and is uncommunicative or responsive.

The other options are incorrect as denial individual goes into a state of numbness when it gets extremely overwhelming for a person to even believe the devastating news. In depression, leads to low energy and motivation in people. Bargaining is a stage that gives a person a false hope, people start to bargain and the desperation leads to the negotiation of many kinds in the hope to change the situation back to normal.
