Answer (1)

The correct answer is 'b. A group of people interested in hearing an author speak,' as it represents spontaneous gathering and shared purpose, which are key aspects of collective behavior. Other options reflect personal or organized actions rather than collective dynamics. Collective behavior involves temporary, unscripted interactions among people who share common interests. ;
