Happiness, sadness, and fear are examples of primary emotions.
The correct answer is "primary".
To understand why, let's break down the options:
1. Learned: Emotions such as happiness, sadness, and fear are not learned. They are considered to be universal human experiences and are present across cultures.
2. Primary: Primary emotions are considered to be basic and universal human emotions that are biologically-determined. These emotions include happiness, sadness, fear, anger, surprise, and disgust. They are thought to have evolved to help us respond to certain situations and are present from birth.
3. Secondary: Secondary emotions are complex emotions that are based on primary emotions and are influenced by cognitive processes. Examples of secondary emotions include guilt, shame, jealousy, and pride.
4. Innate: While emotions are influenced by both biological factors and environmental experiences, they are not considered to be solely innate. Emotions are believed to be shaped by a combination of genetics, neurobiology, and socio-cultural factors.
Given this information, we can conclude that happiness, sadness, and fear are examples of primary emotions because they are universally experienced and are present from birth.
