Which area is still in the process of growth and development into adulthood?

  1. Intelligence

  2. Physical growth

  3. Cognitive growth

  4. Social growth

The correct answer is: Physical growth

Physical growth involves the growth and maturation of the body, which begins during the prenatal period and continues until adulthood. It includes changes in bone and muscle mass, height, and reproductive capabilities. The other options are incorrect because they do not pertain specifically to the physical development of the body. Intelligence, cognitive growth, and social growth can all continue to develop and change throughout adulthood, but physical growth is specific to the body and its physical capabilities.
