Answer:
Explanation:
M. Pollan (2006) describes in his book “The omnivore's dilemma: A natural history of four meals” that human kind has fighted to get food as a basic need since ancient times. Nowadays, modernity and the intervention of science have made possible to have almost all kinds of foods available at the supermarket, while in the past, in order to have food, humans needed to depend on their skills to grow or hunt their meals, because as omnivores as we are, we eat basically everything (vegetable or animal) and need it in order to survive. Though, we like to think that we now have a great diversity available, Pollan (2006) describes in his book that this is only an illusion, created by capitalism, because basically must of our food is only corn in different presentations, at the end, only corn…he refers “ there are some forty-five thousand items in the average American supermarket and more than a quarter of them contain corn” (p.11)

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Timothy, a brilliant investment banker, makes millions each year. He is not very good-looking, but he marries a beautiful, young supermodel. In the context of physical attractiveness, Timothy and his wife most likely exhibit ________ in this scenario.
A. asset matching
B. the ingratiation effect
C. the spotlight effect
D. the mere- exposure effect
Answer:
Timothy and his wife most likely exhibit A. asset matching in this scenario.
Explanation:
Asset matching is a phenomenon observed by psychologists in matching hypothesis. The matching hypothesis concerns the preference individuals display to form relationships with those who resemble them. Resemblance can come in a variety of attributes, such as age, education level, social status, ethnicity, personality traits, values, physical appearance, etc. Asset matching happens because people tend to select partners whose assets are similar to their own. Timothy and his supermodel wife are both wealthy people, which characterizes their selection of each other as asset matching. That wouldn't be the case, however, if Timothy had married a working class woman.
