Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Moral sentiments are emotions that indicate when a moral choice faces us and can move us to make the right choices. Empathy can help us understand the needs of others. Guilt can alert to us to when we have done something wrong and should make amends. Resentment can alert us to the wrong deeds of others. Fear, on the other hand, is not a moral sentiment. It merely alerts us to the presence of something dangerous or harmful.
