    c. She feels proud of herself whenever she does well on her schoolwork.

    Explanation:

    Intrinsic motivation: In psychology, the term intrinsic motivation is defined as the phenomenon in which an individual is being motivated by internal rewards, i. e, a person's behavior is being driven due to gain internal satisfaction and accomplishment.

    Example: An individual plays football because he or she likes it and satisfies it rather than gaining any external compliments.

    In the question above, the example of intrinsic motivation is "She feels proud of herself whenever she does well on her schoolwork".
