Explanation:

Sensory details describe physical sensations or observations. "I thought my knees would give out and I would collapse" uses a physical sensation (knee weakness) to vividly show nervousness, unlike the other options which are general statements or thoughts.

Answer:

"I thought my knees would give out and I would collapse."
