6 is wrong. 20 I suspect your text says that, but in fact, nutritional guidelines for children 4-18 is that 25-35 percent of calories should come from fat.

thanks bobpursley

ok 6 is not b so i think is a?

and 20 if its 25-30% its b?

6 is A and 20 is B

To check your answers, we will go through each question and provide an explanation for the correct choices:

6) The correct answer is (a) teratogens. To determine this, we need to understand what substances impact a child's development. Teratogens are agents or substances that can cause birth defects or developmental abnormalities. Alcohol, drugs, radiation, and pollutants are all examples of teratogens.

10) The correct answer is (a) applying a development perspective. In this scenario, the teacher is assessing the child's motor skills, specifically the ability to overcome barriers. By checking if the child has mastered jumping down from a height and jumping for distance, the teacher is applying a development perspective to evaluate the child's progress in acquiring new motor skills.

12) The correct answer is (a) maturation, learning, and motivation. Readiness models focus on identifying when an individual is prepared or ready to acquire new knowledge or skills. The three main factors in a readiness model are maturation (physical and neurological development), learning (previous knowledge and experiences), and motivation (interest and eagerness to learn).

16) The correct answer is (d) learns through movement by interacting with the environment. According to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, the sensorimotor stage is characterized by a child's exploration and understanding of the world through sensory input and physical actions. During this stage, children learn and develop cognitive skills by actively engaging with their environment and manipulating objects.

20) The correct answer is (b) 30. Fats are an essential part of a balanced diet, but it is recommended that they should not account for more than 30% of total daily calories. Consuming excessive amounts of fats can lead to weight gain, increased risk of chronic diseases, and imbalances in nutrient intake.

Based on the explanations above, your answers are:

6) (a) teratogens - Correct
10) (a) applying a development perspective - Correct
12) (a) maturation, learning, and motivation - Correct
16) (d) learns through movement by interacting with the environment - Correct
20) (b) 30 - Correct

Well done! All of your answers are correct. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
