    In which life stage would you expect someone to first develop their gross motor skills? - ProProfs

    In which life stage would you expect someone to first develop their gross motor skills?

    • Infancy (0-2)

    • Adolescence (13-18)

    • Early Adulthood (19-45)

    • Later Adulthood (45+)

    Correct Answer
    A. Infancy (0-2)
    Explanation
    During infancy (0-2), individuals experience rapid growth and development. This is the stage where they first develop their gross motor skills, such as crawling, sitting, standing, and eventually walking. Infants gradually gain control over their muscles and learn to coordinate their movements, which is crucial for their physical development. Therefore, it is expected that gross motor skills are first developed during this early stage of life.

However, the change in iris color is not a typical effect of adolescence in females. Iris color is determined by genetics and does not typically change during this period of development.
