    • Financial Status 

    • Sexual maturity 

    • Age

    Sexual maturity is the correct answer as it is a key factor that distinguishes adults from children. While age is also a differentiating factor, it alone does not determine adulthood as individuals can reach a certain age without achieving sexual maturity. Properties and financial status are not reliable indicators of adulthood as they can vary greatly among individuals of different ages. Therefore, sexual maturity is the most significant factor that sets adults apart from children.
