(Answer) (A) Because bottom-up mental processing is data-driven. It is when sufficient information isn’t present in our memory to form a reaction. This is when we rely on what we feel or what we learn at the present to formulate our reaction. Options B, C, and D all mention “sufficient resources” this is top-down processing, where the reaction is aided by theory, preconceptions and sufficient information.
