Bthe disparity between emotion and intellect
Cthe difference between survival and leisure
Dthe disparity between reason and instinct

Verified Answer :

Dthe disparity between reason and instinct.

One of the primary themes in The Most Dangerous Game is the disparity between reason and instinct. Connell has tried to blur the lines between the two faculties and tried to demonstrate that these faculties of the human mind are not as starkly apart or clear-cut as they are thought to be. He has done this by creating enmity between Genral Zaroff and Rainsford.
