It’s E.

Type: Manner (I think)

Embrace is the culmination of affection.
Obeisance is the culmiantion of respect.

Please, disabuse me if I’d have misconstrued.

Looks like “E” is the answer.

An embrace needs too much of affection.

Similarly, too much of respect towards a person is a pre-requisite to 0obeisance.

C and E are close options here. I’ll go with C. For option E, obeisance is an act not always associated with respect. It more specifically characterizes submissive behavior. Thus, option C goes to me a better option.

E

an embrace is a behavior you direct towards someone just as obeisance is.

Listlessness is not a behavior directed at someone else.
