✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
In the psychological perspective of child development, 'growth' is related to quantitative changes in physical structure and organ size that can be measured (such as height, weight, etc.) and stops after a certain age (upon maturation). In contrast, 'development' is a broad, holistic, and qualitative as well as quantitative process that continues continuously from conception to death (womb to tomb), encompassing physical, mental, emotional, and social changes.
