- Maturation and Learning: Development results from the continuous interaction between biological maturation and environmental learning experiences.
- Interconnectedness: Physical health strongly supports cognitive and socio-emotional engagement.
Therefore, option (c) accurately reflects the comprehensive scientific and philosophical perspective of child development.
