Answer to Question 1

ANS: B

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Preschoolers demonstrate their ability to think more complexly by classifying objects according to size or color. Cognitive changes that provide the ability to think in a logical manner about the here and now occur during the school-aged years. It is during the teenaged years when the individual thinks abstractly and deals effectively with hypothetical problems. The toddler is unable to assume the view of another.
