Incarceration can be a possible consequence for delinquent acts. Delinquent acts are typically defined as illegal actions performed by minors that would be considered crimes if committed by adults. Unruly behaviors, on the other hand, are generally actions that are not criminal but may still violate social norms or parental rules (e.g., truancy or running away from home) and typically do not result in incarceration in the same way that delinquent acts do. Thus, the correct answer is Delinquent Act.
