This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Brenda does not get along well with Samantha Brenda has started a rumor around school about Samantha and has told most of Samantha's friends that she has been talking about them, which is not true. Which pattern of aggression is Brenda exhibiting?

A) relational aggression

B) overt-destructive

C) overt-nondestructive

D) covert-nondestructive

The pattern of aggression Brenda is exhibiting is:

A) relational aggression.

Explanation:

Relational aggression is also known as alternative aggression. This pattern of aggression consists of harming someone's social status or relationships. The aggressor bullies or manipulates their target and/or others as a way to harm that person. Examples of relational aggression are spreading gossip and rumors, excluding that person from their social group, or even giving them the silent treatment. Notice that Brenda is displaying precisely one of those examples. She is spreading rumors about Samantha as a way to harm her.
