Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Temperament is the way individuals respond to their external and internal environment and sets the stage for the interactive dynamics of growth and development.
Rationale 2: Physical characteristics include eye color and potential height and do not affect how children interact, for the most part.
Rationale 3: Environment includes family, religion, climate, culture, school, community, and nutrition and would not play as big of a role in how the child responds to peers as temperament does.
Rationale 4: Culture is part of environmental factors.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Growth is the physical change and increase in size.
Rationale 2: Development is an increase in the complexity of function and skill progression. It is the behavioral aspect of growth-the person's ability to walk, talk, and run.
Rationale 3: Height is one of the indicators of growth.
Rationale 4: Behavior is a component of the developmental stage.
