A	Positive Punishment
B	Positive Reinforcement
C	Negative Punishment
D	Negative Reinforcement

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -TikTok boosts your first few videos, showing them to more people than usual, before dialing down the algorithm and letting you grow organically. This is why it’s important that your first few TikToks are high quality and relevant to your niche.

Detailed explanation-2: -Besides being a waste of time, TikTok is a dangerous platform for users, serving as a hub of blatant misinformation and high-risk trends. Most TikTok users creating content about world events have not conducted sufficient research to support their claims, yet their videos can reach millions of people.
