Explanation:

1. Lifelong development means growth and change throughout life. The option "People experience growth and change at every age, from birth through old age" aligns with this concept. The other options wrongly limit development to certain life - stages or misdefine it as solely physical decline.
2. Normative history - graded influences are those that affect a particular generation due to historical context. A teenager using social media platforms common to their generation is an example as it is influenced by the historical development of technology in their generation. A child walking at the same age as peers is a normative age - graded influence, an adult's cognitive decline is a non - normative biological change, and a family affected by a natural disaster is a non - normative life event.

Answer:

1. People experience growth and change at every age, from birth through old age.
2. A teenager using social media platforms common to their generation
