Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Theory is regarded as one of the most popular theories on motivation. It is a theory of psychology that explains that humans are highly motivated in order to fulfill their needs, which is based on hierarchical order.

Detailed explanation-2: -Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is a model for understanding the motivations for human behavior. It maps different motivations onto a pyramid, with each level representing a different human need. These include physiological needs, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization.

Detailed explanation-3: -When Abraham Maslow created his Hierarchy of Needs, he argued that humans are motivated by five essential needs: physiological, safety, social, self-esteem and self-actualisation (also known as self-fulfilment). At the bottom of the pyramid are our physiological needs, such as food, water, sleep, and warmth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Maslow’s theory is based on the following assumptions. (i) People’s need influences their behaviour. (ii) Needs of the individuals can be arranged in a hierarchical order. (iii) An individual can move to a higher level need only when the lower level need in the hierarchy is satisfied.
