ANS: A kp




Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp vary normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



a definition for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp muscle organization occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp more complex process that is affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp accurately measured. Growth is a predictable process with standard measurement

kp methods.

2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?

ANS: C kp




Critical periods are blocks of time during which children are ready to master specific
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp developmental tasks. Children can master these tasks more easily during particular periods
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp of time in their growth and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp development that requires frequent evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress.
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp Infants in a nurturing environment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp stimulation specific to their developmental stage. Normal growth and development are
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp orderly and proceed in a predictable pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp potentials.

3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and development?
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp




a. Culture

b. Environment

c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C kp




Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth and developmental rate.
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp Although factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent.
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp Culture is a significant factor that influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp influences both growth and development but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences.
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp Environment has a significant role in determining growth and development both before and
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp after birth. The environment can influence how and to which extent genetic traits are
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp manifested, but environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of genetics. Nutrition is
kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp kp



kp critical for growth and plays a significant role throughout childhood.
