A Correct answer
Explanation

Quasi-contracts are obligations created by law rather than by mutual agreement between parties. They arise in situations like restitution for unjust enrichment, necessaries supplied to incapable persons, or payment by interested parties. No actual contract exists, but the law imposes contractual obligations to prevent injustice. They don't arise from natural causes (C) or man-made causes (D) - they arise from equitable principles.
