The major difference between an individual who uses cocaine weekly and tried to stop and can't and an individual that skydives weekly and can't stop is that:

B) the first individual is experiencing a pathological addiction, while the second individual is experiencing a behavioral addiction.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The options for this question are:

A) they both have a bad habit and can't stop it.

B) the first individual is experiencing a pathological addiction, while the second individual is experiencing a behavioral addiction.

C) both individuals are seeking a "high," but the skydiver isn't worried about becoming addicted.

D) There is no difference—both individuals are suffering from a type of dysfunction.

In psychology, there are two main types of addictions: The substance addiction and the behavioral addiction. The first ones have to do with addictions to a substance like alcohol or drugs, while the second ones have to do with behaviors that provide the individual with a feeling of reward and therefore they are reinforced (gambling, food, risky behaviors). Both addictions are considered and mention in the DSM-V (the manual used to diagnose psychological disorders) and both can create dependence.

Now, examining the options we have, we can see that:

D) There is no difference—both individuals are suffering from a type of dysfunction. is wrong since we already said there are different kind of addictions. (and the first one has a substance addiction and the second one has a behavior addiction)

C) both individuals are seeking a "high," but the skydiver isn't worried about becoming addicted: We cannot really know if the skydiver is not worried about becoming addicted, since we already know he cannot stop skydiving weekly.

A) they both have a bad habit and can't stop it: Addiction is not a habit but a disorder, therefore this is incorrect.

B) the first individual is experiencing a pathological addiction, while the second individual is experiencing a behavioral addiction: We already differentiate the kind of addictions there are and we can say that cocaine is a substance addiction (pathological) and skydiving (risky behavior) is a behavioral addiction and therefore this is the correct answer.
