Explanation:

Spotters are needed for lifts where failure could lead to injury (e.g., being pinned under weight). Deadlifts, bench presses, and squats are compound lifts with high injury risk if form breaks or fatigue sets in, requiring spotters. Other options include lifts with lower risk (e.g., curls, lunges) that typically don’t need spotters.

Answer:

A. dead lifts, bench presses, and squats
