Answer:

Which component of the personality uses defense mechanisms, and why?

D) the ego uses defense mechanisms to prevent excessive anxiety.

Explanation:

The term "defense mechanism" comes from Freudian psychology. It refers to the ego - the component of personality that deals with reality - trying to protect itself (or us, so to speak) from anxiety or any undesirable feelings with which we cannot cope. The other components of personality, the id and the superego, create conflicts that may result in the ego feeling anxious. To prevent that from happening, defense mechanisms (such as denial, repression, projection, etc.) are activated.
