Rachel's parents used to pay her an allowance every week to feed the cats and to do a few other chores around the house. however, once her mother lost her job, her parents stopped giving her an allowance. although rachel quit making her bed every morning, she still continued to feed the cats. which of the following best explains why rachel continues to feed the cats?

with the extrinsic reward, the execution of the task relies on internal motivation.
without the extrinsic reward, the task itself is eliminated.
with the intrinsic reward, the execution of the task relies on external motivation.
without the extrinsic reward, the execution of the task relies on internal motivation.
without the intrinsic reward, the execution of the task relies on external motivation.

The answer is:  without the extrinsic reward, the execution of the task relies on internal motivation

Extrinsic reward refers to some sort of gain given by others that you get from doing something. Internal motivation on the other hand is a form of gain that derived from yourself after you do something.

From the case above, Rachel's motivation to feed the cats and do the jobs is given by her mother in the form of allowance (extrinsic reward). After her mother lost the job, rachel no longer able to receive this.

Because of this, feeding the cat would most likely be done because of internal motivation from Rachel's part (such as because Rachel loves the cat)
