    Explanation
    A baby who is only a day old is referred to as a newborn because this term specifically denotes a baby who has just been born and is in the earliest stage of life. The term "newborn" is commonly used to describe infants in their first few weeks of life, highlighting their fragility and vulnerability. It is a distinct stage in a baby's development before they progress into being a youngster or a kid.

    • A.

      Foetus

      Toddlers

      Crawlers

    • D.

      Biters

    Correct Answer
    B. Toddlers
    Explanation
    Babies between one and three years of age are called toddlers because this stage of development is characterized by their ability to start walking independently, hence the term "toddler" which refers to their unsteady and wobbly steps. During this period, children also begin to explore their surroundings, develop language skills, and show increased independence in their actions and decision-making. The term "foetus" refers to the stage of development before birth, "crawlers" refers to babies who are in the stage of crawling, and "biters" does not accurately describe the age group mentioned in the question.

    Correct Answer
    A. Speak
    Explanation
    Babies are not able to speak as they have not yet developed the necessary language skills and vocal abilities. While they can breathe, see, and smile, speaking requires the coordination of various muscles in the mouth, throat, and vocal cords, as well as the ability to understand and produce language. Therefore, speaking is the one ability that babies do not possess.
