Which personality component is responsible for immediate gratification?
A
Superego
B
Ego
C
Kronk
D
Id
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -According to Freud, the id is the source of all psychic energy, making it the primary component of personality. The id is driven by the pleasure principle, which strives for immediate gratification of all desires, wants, and needs.

Detailed explanation-2: -What is the id? The id is the primitive and instinctive component of personality. The id is a part of the unconscious that contains all the urges and impulses, including what is called the libido, a kind of generalized sexual energy that is used for everything from survival instincts to appreciation of art.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is the most well-known psychologist that ever lived.

Detailed explanation-4: -The ego operates from the reality principle, which works to satisfy the id’s desires in the most reasonable and realistic ways. The ego may do this by delaying gratification, compromising, or anything else that will avoid the negative consequences of going against society’s norms and rules.

Detailed explanation-5: -The id provides the drives for behavior, the superego strives for moral perfection, and the ego works to strike a balance between those two needs and the demands of reality. A healthy, well-functioning personality is all about striking a need between the id, ego, and superego.
