The correct answer is A) bottom-up.

The kind of processing that is exemplified by the following scenario is bottom-up processing.

This is the scenario: Esther’s mother offers her a new dish she’s been working on―a raisin-jalapeno quiche. Esther’s body responds first: Esther eyes the content of the skillet, and smells the mix of raisins, jalapenos, and eggs. Her stomach churns and she looks away. Feeling disgusted and disappointment, she says “I’m not hungry.”

When we are talking about bottom-up processing, we are referring to one of the two processes implicated in perception. The other one is Top-down. Bottom-up means processing sensory information as it is coming into the mind.
