Answer:

This description of one's experience BEST fits the A. Cannon-Bard theory of emotion.

Explanation:

The Cannon-Bard Theory, also known as the Thalamic Theory, is a physiological way of explaining emotions. It states that an individual feels emotions and experiences physiological reactions at the same time, such as muscle contractions, tremors, sweating, etc.

In this case, One was startled awake by an earthquake and at the same time as he felt frightened, he started to sweat which made him jump from bed and get cover. This is an example of this theory.
