Final Answer : A, Explanation :  Dissociation theory proposes that hypnosis involves a split in awareness, with one part of the mind dissociating from the other. If highly hypnotizable people are no better at multitasking, this would suggest that there is no split in awareness during hypnosis and would therefore challenge dissociation theory. The other options are not related to the ability to multitask and are therefore incorrect.
