a. aggressive, persistent, intentional, and has duration.
b. selfish, habitual, harmful, and avoidable.
c. deviant, dangerous, distressful, dysfunctional, and has duration.
d. biologically influenced, unconsciously motivated, and difficult to change.

C. deviant, dangerous, distressful, dysfunctional, and has duration.

Explanation:

In psychology, a disordered behavior is a pattern of conduct that causes significant distress or impairment of personal functioning. To make a diagnosis, the pattern of behavior has to be persistent, cause mental distress and affect the person in different areas of their life. Also, most of the disorders need to have a minimum duration (from weeks to months) in order to be diagnosed.

Therefore, the correct answer would be c. deviant, dangerous, distressful, dysfunctional, and has duration.
