Question 2

Nine-month-old Joshua is given a stuffed toy which is too large for him to hold in his hand or place in his mouth.
 
  Joshua lets the stuffed toy fall to the ground and shows no further
  interest in it. How would Piaget explain this behavior?
 
  Since Joshua was unable to achieve cognitive equilibrium, he applied
  assimilation to this new experience.
  Since Joshua couldn't hold onto the stuffed toy, he remained in a state of
  disequilibrium.
  Since Joshua was unable to achieve cognitive equilibrium, he applied
  accommodation to this new experience.
  Joshua wanted to play with the stuffed toy, but he doesn't have the visual
  ability to perceive the size of the toy.
