Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The word ``regard for others as a principle of action or selflessly" describes a selfless concern for the well-being of others, which is the definition of altruism. 
- Option A: ``Gynicism" refers to a general belief or attitude that women are superior to men or something related to a woman's perspective, which is not related to the idea of selflessly helping others. 
- Option B: ``Nepotism" refers to favoring relatives or friends in professional matters, especially in positions of power or influence, which is not related to selfless concern for others. 
- Option C: ``Philanthropy" refers to charitable actions or the desire to promote the welfare of others, typically through donations or efforts, but it is more about giving to causes rather than acting selflessly in daily interactions. 
- Option D: ``Altruism" is the correct answer. It refers to selfless concern for the well-being of others, without any expectation of reward or benefit. Thus, the correct answer is Option D.
