Solution

The correct option is B Equity
People are different in terms of their upbringing, family background, place of stay, and so on. So, there have to be different opportunities for people to achieve the same development. The access to different opportunities is called equity.

When people are given equal opportunities, they may not be able to achieve the desired development.
