Answer: A
The answer is the organism.
This is the first proposition of Abraham Maslow's paper A Theory of Human Motivation (1943), where he says that the integrated wholeness of the organism must be one of the foundation stones of motivation theory. Maslow meant that it is the whole individual who is motivated, not a separate part such as the stomach: a hungry person is hungry as a whole, and every faculty is affected. His hierarchy of needs is built on that premise.
The organisation, the society and nature are the settings in which a person acts. Maslow's starting point was the individual human being as a unified whole, so none of those is the term he used.
