The correct answer is: Physical Neglect.

Physical neglect is a term used to describe a condition when a parent does not provide a child with basic physical needs. This means that children do not have conditions to be healthy and safe such as no adequate food, shelter, clothing or healthcare. As a consequence, serious injuries or illness might occur.
