Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Manifest content refers to the actual events and characters that are observed in a dream, while latent content refers to the underlying wishes and desires that those events and characters represent. So manifest content is to the characters and events we observe in a dream, as latent content is to the actual wishes and desires that are being expressed.
