Correct Answer
A. IllogicalExplanation
A phobia is illogical because it is an irrational and excessive fear or aversion towards a specific object, situation, or activity.

Phobias often develop without any logical reason or basis, and individuals with phobias may recognize that their fear is irrational but still struggle to control or overcome it.Rate this question:
