Which statement lists the three aspects related to developmental change?

• A. Physical Growth, Differentiation, and Maturation
• B. Physical Growth
• C. Differentiation
• D. Maturation

Answer: (A)

Developmental change involves three interconnected processes: physical growth, differentiation, and maturation. Physical growth refers to increases in size and bodily features over time. Differentiation is how cells specialize to form different tissues and organs, enabling the body's complex structures. Maturation is the sequential development of function and capability toward the adult state. The statement that includes all three captures the full scope of how development unfolds, making it the best answer. The other options mention only one aspect, so they don’t describe the complete picture.
