    1. D <- The others are used as method of survival, this one is less important.

    2. C <- The others are natural instinct, developed over time by natural selection and adaptation.

    2. C <- Insight has to do with having the knowledge. The others involve learning new things.

    4. D <- By definition its their instincts not there thoughts. Like when you put your hand on a oven hot plate, you don't think "Should I move my hand?", you just do it.

    5. A <- All others are used in tribal and cultural situations.
