Feedback
A Culture is a significant factor that influences how children grow toward
adulthood. Culture influences both growth and development but does not
eliminate inborn genetic influences.
B Environment has a significant role in determining growth and development both
before and after birth. The environment can influence how and to which extent
genetic traits are manifested, but environmental factors cannot eliminate the
effect of genetics.
C Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individual's growth and developmental
rate. Although factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can
influence genetic traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic
endowment, which is permanent.
D Nutrition is critical for growth and plays a significant role throughout childhood.
