Answer 1

The correct answer is look at spiders.
 
Arachnophobia refers to a fear of spiders and other insects such as scorpions which have multiple-legs. Arachnophobic individuals have an intense fear of being bitten and poisoned by a spider, might experience panic attacks at the sight of spiders, and avoid places in which they think they might find spiders. Arachnophobia is highly prevalent in western societies.
