Answer to Question 1

asynchrony

The general appearance of the adolescent tends to be awkward, that is, long-legged and gangling; this growth characteristic is termed asynchrony because different body parts mature at different rates.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, D, E
Rites of passage are socially recognized milestones that signify adulthood. Legal drinking age, driver's license, and matriculation through high school are such signals. Religious affiliation and selection of a career path do not necessarily signal adulthood.
