Question

assessment questions

1. what is the relationship between the physical and emotional changes that adolescents experience?

a. the emotional changes cause the physical changes.

b. the physical changes cause the emotional changes.

c. the physical changes are minimal compared to the emotional changes.

d. the emotional changes are minimal compared to the physical changes.

Explanation:

During adolescence, physical changes (like hormonal changes, body growth) occur due to puberty. These physical changes, especially hormonal fluctuations, influence emotional states (mood swings, self - image - related emotions). Option A is wrong as emotions don't cause physical puberty - related changes. Options C and D are wrong as both physical and emotional changes are significant during adolescence. So physical changes (puberty - driven) lead to emotional changes.

Answer:

B. The physical changes cause the emotional changes.
