Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Contact comfort refers to the innate human need for physical closeness and contact with others to feel secure and comforted. Immediacy refers to the desire to have access to others when needed, without delay. Therefore, option C represents the natural drive to have psychological closeness with others without delay, and a sense of relief from knowing others in our network are accessible. The other options either do not fully capture the concept or are not relevant.
