Answer to Question 1

C
Growth and development occur in a continuous, predictable pattern for all individuals but at an inconsistent individual rate; each developmental stage has specific characteristics, with certain tasks to be achieved during that specific time period. Each developmental stage forms the foundation for subsequent stages, and some stages of growth and development are more critical than others.

Answer to Question 2

D
The interaction of factors such as heredity, life experiences, health status, and cultural expectations affects an individual's growth and development, response to daily life situations, and choices about health behaviors.
