Answer:c. Need for relatedness

Explanation:

Apathy is usually associated with insufficient feeling or emotion that can causes us to be concerned about something.

Apathy occurs when we can't show our emotions. A person who is apathetic is likely to have less interest in social connections or any other connections with the world around them.

They may feel like everything is worthless because they don't feel adequate enough to fit in with the rest of other people.

Isabelle probably feels like she can't relate to any of the students around her and she may also feel like there is no need to try because she will fail anyway.
