Pre-conventional/pre-moral
B
Conventional
C
post-conventional
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At this stage, children recognize that there is not just one right view that is handed down by the authorities. Different individuals have different viewpoints.

Detailed explanation-2: -Level 1: Preconventional level At the preconventional level, morality is externally controlled. Rules imposed by authority figures are conformed to in order to avoid punishment or receive rewards. This perspective involves the idea that what is right is what one can get away with or what is personally satisfying.

Detailed explanation-3: -Kohlberg’s six stages were grouped into three levels: pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional.

Detailed explanation-4: -The level of conventional morality: At the level of conventional morality, children tend to believe that rules can be changed if they do not serve the common good of society.

Detailed explanation-5: -Kohlberg calls stage 1 thinking “preconventional” because children do not yet speak as members of society. Instead, they see morality as something external to themselves, as that which the big people say they must do. What is right for Heinz, then, is what meets his own self-interests.
