Answer to Question 1

C
Preschoolers' eyehand coordination develops markedly during this period. They can hop on one foot, skip, and begin to learn to skate. The imagination of a preschool-age child is typically active, whereby they have fears of mythical figures, such as monsters. They have a limited ability to understand the concept of time or to tell time. A preschooler has the ability to consider simple viewpoints of other people.

Answer to Question 2

C
Generativity versus stagnation is the stage Erikson describes for the middle adult. During this stage, a mature adult wishes to make a contribution. He either continues to gain skills, be productive, and pass on his or her knowledge to the next generation or stagnates. During the middle years, many adults are realistic and insightful about age-related physical and emotional changes. Others experience difficulty coping with passing youth and advancing age. Accepting death as a part of the continuum of life is a task for the older adult. Developing meaningful relationships is a task most characteristic of the young adult.
