Which perspective best describes adolescence? When does adolescence actually begin and end? What factors are involved that influence an adolescent\'s development? Solution Adolescence is a transitional stage where in a child continues to metamorphose into an adult. In other words the stage that lies between or that bridges childhood and adulthood. Adolescence is a phase of major physiological changes. At this stage the pubertal changes start taking place. Secondary sexual characters start appearing in both the sexes. Adolescence prepares an individual for adulthood. It is characterized by labile emotions, outburst of emotions, swift and rapid behavioral changes, self-interest, self-conscious, etc.i t is the second most important stage of development after infancy. It involves rapid cognitive, sexual and physical development. The onset age of adolescence in females is 8 to 14 and in males it is 9 to 15. The data suggests the onset-age decide type of the behavioral changes that occur in adolescence. Factors influencing the age of adolescence are as follows- Biological factors like hormones etc Stress and stressful environment Body weight and body fat distribution Socioeconomic status Nature, niche, habit, peer, etc Presence of long standing illness Diet and exercise.

The document discusses the physical and hormonal changes that occur during puberty, including growth spurts, development of primary and secondary sex characteristics, and increased hormone production. It notes that puberty transforms the body from childhood to adulthood over 3-5 years on average, but can occur between ages 8-14. While puberty involves growth, sexuality, and brain development, it can also cause problems for some adolescents like early sexual activity, teenage pregnancy, and sexually transmitted infections.
Stages of Development: Puberty and Adolescent
This document discusses puberty and adolescence. It defines puberty as the period when a child undergoes sexual maturation and transitions from asexual to sexual being, typically between ages 10-16. Puberty involves physical changes like growth spurts and development of secondary sex characteristics. It can be an emotionally difficult time due to rapid changes. Adolescence is defined as the period from ages 13-19 when individuals progress towards adulthood. This involves continued physical development as well as emotional, mental and social maturation. Adolescence presents both opportunities and challenges as individuals work to develop an identity and independence.
Sexual maturation
1) Physical growth is determined by both genetic and environmental factors such as nutrition and experience.
2) There are two main patterns of physical growth - from head to toe (cephalocaudal) and from the center of the body outward (proximodistal).
3) Growth occurs very rapidly in infancy, steadily in childhood, with a marked growth spurt at puberty typically between ages 11-13, after which growth may still occur.
Sexuality
This document discusses human sexuality and sexual development. It covers several topics: the definition of sexuality and sexual health; stages of sexual development from infancy through older adulthood; and some common sexual dysfunctions. Sexuality involves biological, psychological, social, and cultural dimensions and is important for overall health and well-being. Sexual development occurs across six stages from birth through older age, with changes in sexual interests, behaviors, and functioning at each stage as the body and relationships develop.

Abuse and Addiction in Adolescence
Adolescence years, the years between 12 and 20, can be viewed by many as time of difficulty and instability. During this period, adolescents deal with emotional turbulence caused by identity issues and wanting to be accepted by society. The beginning of adolescence is marked by puberty, a flood of biological events leading to an adult-sized body and sexual maturity (Berk, 2010). During puberty, sex organs develop fully and sex characteristics emerge. Whether one believes this to be true, adolescence is describe by significant physical, psychological, intellectual, and social changes.
Drugs and Adolescences
The abuse of substance is an increasing area of concern in adolescents. According to Feldman (2014), one in 15 high school seniors smoke marijuana on a daily or near-daily basis. Adolescents are more likely to experiment with cigarettes or illicit drugs without experiencing adverse side effects. Because of this, teenagers are more likely to continue to use. The abuse of such substances has physical consequences for the emerging adolescents, and may produce techniques that imitate other psychopathological behaviors. Recurrent and extended consumption not only intensify their risk of developing a substance use disorder, but hinder the development of essential psychosocial skills.
Typically, all illicit drugs arouse the brain’s reward circuitry which supplies the pleasure feeling. This is extremely dangerous during the adolescence years because it causes adolescents to display risky behavior. The prefrontal cortex is the part of the brain that allows people to think, evaluate and make complex judgements in a uniquely human way (Feldman, 2014).
Effects of Substance Abuse
Studies have shown that substance abuse is also related to a wide variety of psychological disorders. Substance use disorders (SUDs) during adolescence include substance dependence and substance abuse, which result from the self-administration of any substance that alters mood, perception, or brain functioning (Mash et.al, 2010). Substance dependency does not just cause psychological dependence but also may cause physical dependence. For example, if a person uses drugs every time they are faced a stressful situation, it would cause they to depend on that drug to help them cope with the problem. If drugs are used as an escape, they may prevent adolescents from confronting—and potentially solving—the problems that led to them to drug use in the first place (Feldman, p. 372).
People who develop psychological dependence believe that in order to function effectively, they must have the substance in their system. Physical dependence occurs when the body acclimates ...

This document discusses principles and factors affecting child growth and development. It defines growth as a quantitative increase in size while development refers to functional and qualitative maturation. Growth and development are continuous, orderly processes that proceed in stages from head to tail and center to periphery. They are influenced by genetic, prenatal, and postnatal factors such as nutrition, environment, socioeconomic status, and hormones. The document outlines the common stages of development from neonate to adulthood.Adulthood
This document discusses development through adolescence and adulthood. It covers physical, cognitive, and social development at each stage. In adolescence, it describes the physical changes of puberty like growth spurts and secondary sex characteristics. Cognitively, adolescents reach formal operations allowing abstract thought. Socially, peers become important and gender roles narrow. Development continues into early, middle, and late adulthood with changes in each domain.

Development continues into early, middle, and late adulthood with changes in physical and cognitive abilities as well as social roles.
1 adolescence period of tremendous physical and cognitive growth
Adolescence is a transitional period between childhood and adulthood where individuals experience tremendous physical and cognitive growth. During this time, adolescents develop abstract thinking abilities, become more future-oriented, and engage in risk-taking behaviors which can have long-lasting consequences. Peer relationships and influences also impact adolescent development through social learning and pressure to conform. Adolescence is a diverse phase, and supporting healthy development through risk reduction and empowerment can help individuals make a successful transition to adulthood.
CRIM-3-Lesson-2.pptx
This document discusses the various stages of human development from birth through old age. It notes that at birth, infants possess certain reflexes that are necessary for survival like sucking and grasping. It then outlines 10 major stages of growth: pre-natal period, infancy, babyhood, early childhood, late childhood, puberty/preadolescence, adolescence, adulthood, middle age, and old age. For each stage, it discusses some key characteristics and developmental tasks. The document emphasizes that successfully completing the tasks for each stage prepares a person for the next stage of life.
Hormonal Changes in puberty.ppt
Puberty is initiated by increases in hormones like leptin and kisspeptin which activate the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, triggering the release of sex hormones and setting off physical changes. In females, puberty involves breast development, pubic hair growth, menarche, and ovarian and uterine maturation over 3-5 years starting around age 10. In males, it involves testicular growth, pubic hair growth, penis growth, voice deepening, and a growth spurt over 3-5 years starting around age 11. Throughout puberty, sex hormones influence brain development and increase emotional volatility and risk-taking behavior.
puberty_and_teen_years.ppt
Puberty is a period of physical, mental, and emotional changes that occurs during adolescence as a child becomes an adult. Physical changes typically begin between ages 8-12 and last until ages 15-19. These changes are caused by increases in hormones like estrogen and testosterone, which are produced by the endocrine system. During puberty, adolescents experience mood swings and developing identities as they join new social groups. They also see improvements in complex thinking but still make decisions more on emotions. The decisions teens make during this transition period can affect the adults they become.
UTS Midterm.docx
The document discusses physiological influences on adolescent sexual behavior based on a systematic review of 13 studies. Key findings include:
- Hormonal changes, particularly increasing testosterone levels, are associated with earlier initiation of sexual activity and more frequent sex for both males and females. However, psychosocial factors may moderate these effects, especially for females.
- Brain development during puberty also influences sexual behavior, though studies show this operates differently between genders.
- Psychosocial contexts like relationships with peers, religious involvement, and perceptions of maturity play a role but are more influential for females compared to the direct effects of hormones on males.
Sexuality and sexual health
This document provides information about sexual health and sexuality. It begins with introducing sexuality as an important part of identity and discusses professionals' responsibility to provide holistic sexual health care. It then defines key terminology, components of sexual health, factors that can influence sexuality, stages of psychosexual development, the sexual response cycle, and common sexual dysfunctions.

This is a book about lifespan human development—the ways in which
people grow, change, and stay the same throughout their lives, from
conception to death. When people use the term development, they often
mean the transformation from infant to adult. However, development does
not end with adulthood. We continue to change in predictable ways
throughout our lifetime, even into old age. Developmental scientists study
human development. They seek to understand lifetime patterns of change.

adolescence age
The document discusses adolescence and provides details about:
1) Adolescence begins with puberty and ends with entrance into adulthood. It involves developing an identity in relation to peers and culture.
2) Adolescence is divided into early (ages 12-16) and late (ages 17-20s) stages. Early adolescence involves identity formation through school and peers.
3) Physical changes in puberty include growth spurts and development of secondary sex characteristics leading to reproductive capability. Nutritional needs differ for boys and girls during this period.

Growth and development principles and factors affecting growth and development.pratheesh parathanal thankachan
This document discusses principles and factors affecting child growth and development. It defines growth as a quantitative increase in size while development refers to functional and qualitative maturation. Growth and development are continuous, orderly processes that proceed in stages from head to tail and center to periphery. They are influenced by genetic, prenatal, and postnatal factors such as nutrition, environment, socioeconomic status, and hormones. The document outlines the common stages of development from neonate to adulthood.Adulthood
This document discusses development through adolescence and adulthood. It covers physical, cognitive, and social development at each stage. In adolescence, it describes the physical changes of puberty like growth spurts and secondary sex characteristics. Cognitively, adolescents reach formal operations allowing abstract thought. Socially, peers become important and gender roles narrow. Development continues into early, middle, and late adulthood with changes in each domain.
Adulthood.ppt
The document discusses physical, cognitive, and social development through adolescence and adulthood. It covers the major stages of development from adolescence through late adulthood. During adolescence, individuals experience major physical changes through puberty and growth spurts. Cognitively, adolescents develop formal operational thinking and the ability to think abstractly. Socially, peers become important and gender roles are more clearly defined. Development continues throughout the life stages of early, middle, and late adulthood with changes in physical, cognitive, and social/emotional functioning.
Adulthood.ppt
The document discusses development through adolescence and adulthood. It covers physical, cognitive, and social development at each life stage from adolescence through late adulthood. During adolescence, individuals experience puberty and physical maturation. Cognitively, they develop formal operational thought and the ability to think abstractly. Socially, peers become increasingly important and gender roles are strongly influenced. Development continues into early, middle, and late adulthood with changes in physical and cognitive abilities as well as social roles.
1 adolescence period of tremendous physical and cognitive growth
Adolescence is a transitional period between childhood and adulthood where individuals experience tremendous physical and cognitive growth. During this time, adolescents develop abstract thinking abilities, become more future-oriented, and engage in risk-taking behaviors which can have long-lasting consequences. Peer relationships and influences also impact adolescent development through social learning and pressure to conform. Adolescence is a diverse phase, and supporting healthy development through risk reduction and empowerment can help individuals make a successful transition to adulthood.
CRIM-3-Lesson-2.pptx
This document discusses the various stages of human development from birth through old age. It notes that at birth, infants possess certain reflexes that are necessary for survival like sucking and grasping. It then outlines 10 major stages of growth: pre-natal period, infancy, babyhood, early childhood, late childhood, puberty/preadolescence, adolescence, adulthood, middle age, and old age. For each stage, it discusses some key characteristics and developmental tasks. The document emphasizes that successfully completing the tasks for each stage prepares a person for the next stage of life.
Hormonal Changes in puberty.ppt
Puberty is initiated by increases in hormones like leptin and kisspeptin which activate the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, triggering the release of sex hormones and setting off physical changes. In females, puberty involves breast development, pubic hair growth, menarche, and ovarian and uterine maturation over 3-5 years starting around age 10. In males, it involves testicular growth, pubic hair growth, penis growth, voice deepening, and a growth spurt over 3-5 years starting around age 11. Throughout puberty, sex hormones influence brain development and increase emotional volatility and risk-taking behavior.
puberty_and_teen_years.ppt
Puberty is a period of physical, mental, and emotional changes that occurs during adolescence as a child becomes an adult. Physical changes typically begin between ages 8-12 and last until ages 15-19. These changes are caused by increases in hormones like estrogen and testosterone, which are produced by the endocrine system. During puberty, adolescents experience mood swings and developing identities as they join new social groups. They also see improvements in complex thinking but still make decisions more on emotions. The decisions teens make during this transition period can affect the adults they become.
UTS Midterm.docx
The document discusses physiological influences on adolescent sexual behavior based on a systematic review of 13 studies. Key findings include:
- Hormonal changes, particularly increasing testosterone levels, are associated with earlier initiation of sexual activity and more frequent sex for both males and females. However, psychosocial factors may moderate these effects, especially for females.
- Brain development during puberty also influences sexual behavior, though studies show this operates differently between genders.
- Psychosocial contexts like relationships with peers, religious involvement, and perceptions of maturity play a role but are more influential for females compared to the direct effects of hormones on males.
Sexuality and sexual health
This document provides information about sexual health and sexuality. It begins with introducing sexuality as an important part of identity and discusses professionals' responsibility to provide holistic sexual health care. It then defines key terminology, components of sexual health, factors that can influence sexuality, stages of psychosexual development, the sexual response cycle, and common sexual dysfunctions.

What are the relative signal intensities for Grey and White matter u.pdf
What are the relative signal intensities for Grey and White matter using the T1 and T2 values
given below, if TR is 300 ms and TE = 15 ms.
Gray matter: T1 = 520(msec) and T2 = 95
White matter: T1 = 380(msec) and T2 = 85
Solution
The relative signal intensities for Grey and White matter are calculated by using the equation:
SI = K * rho 8(1-exp { -[TR-TE] / T1} * exp {-TE / T2})
where SI = signal intensity, K represents the influence of flow, rho is proton density, Tr is the
repetition time, Te is echo time, and T1 and T2 are relaxation times.
Proton density is the concentration of protons in a tissue in the form of biomolecules.
From the given data,
TR = 300 ms and
TE = 15 ms.
Gray matter: T1 = 520(msec) and T2 = 95
White matter: T1 = 380(msec) and T2 = 85
Long T1 values appear dark and short T1 appears bright.
Hence, the T1 of grey matter appears dark and and T1 of white matter appears bright and the T2
of white matter appears bright and and T2 of white matter appears dark..
What is the ovum doing during the primary oocyte stageSolution.pdf
What is the ovum doing during the primary oocyte stage?
Solution
Answer:
Primary oocytes forms prenatally and remain suspended in prophase of meiosis I until it reaches
puberty. An oocyte completes meiosis I as its follicle matures resulting in a secondary oocyte
and the first polar body. After ovulation, each oocyte continues to meiosis II metaphase. Meiosis
II is completed only if fertilization occurs. This results in a fertilized mature ovum and the
second polar body.
Thus, the human female oocyte is arrested in metaphase II until fertilization by a sperm takes
place..

Solution
ANS: B. The presence of a 2’ hydroxyl.
Explanation:
Both DNA and RNA nucleotides are made up with a Nitrogenous base, 5-carbon sugar and
phosphate group.
The sugar molecule in ribonucleotides is Beta- D- Ribofuranose (Ribo furanose), where as in de
oxy ribonucleotides it is 2-De oxy Beta- D- Ribofuranose.
RNA contains oxygen molecule on second position of its Ribose sugar. In DNA it is absent; due

PREVENTION AND MITIGATION OF VOLCANIC HAZARDS AS A CIVIL ENGINNER
A volcanic eruption can not practically influenced by man.There are, however, limited
possibilities to controlling several of its effects, such as barriers against lava flows or cooling
lava with sea water. Smaller lahars can be channeled by artificial sabo dams. Another possibility
to prevent the generation of lahars is artificial draining of crater lakes. Long-term regional
planning can significantly reduce the hazard potential. Disaster reduction measures can
contribute to mitigate the impact of the volcanic eruptions. Fatalities and economic losses can be
reduced if, associated with a well monitoring system, including Early Warning and land use

with thick enamel Trait B found in fossils as old as 55 million following features: Trait A found
in postorbital wall that ventrally separates the orbit from the temporal fossa. Which of the
following statements is TRUE? Trait A is more beneficial for chimpanzee survival because it is
newer. Trait B is more beneficial for chimpanzee survival because it is older. Trait A is more
likely to be widespread among other primate species because it is newer. Trait B is more likely
to be widespread among other primate species because it is older. Your classmate shows you the
two groups of lizards shown below-each made within the Evolutionary Evidence lab and asks if
you can figure out how she made them. Which of the following is most likely? The lizards in
Group A were independently designed, in the lizards in Group B were produced by descent with
modification from a common ancestor. The lizards in Group A were produced by descent with
modification from a common ancestor the lizards in Group B were independently designed. The
lizards in both Group A and Group B were produced by descent with modification them common
ancestor. It\'s impossible make any inferences on how these lizards were made from the
information given. Each of the following graphs shows a hypothetical relationship between the
predicted order of trait appearance based on trait nesting (y-axis) and the actual order of the
appearance in the fossil record (x axis), for a number of traits among a group of species. Which
graph would provide the best evidence that these species arose by descent with modification
from a common ancestor?
Solution
We shall first summarize the given data -
1) Chimpanzees evolved 30 million years ago.
2) Trait A is seen in fossils as old as 10 to 12 million years old.
3) Trait B is seen in fossils as old as 55 million years old.
Let us look at each option one by one-
A) Trait A is more beneficial to the chimpanzees because it is newer.
Although the trait is newr, there is no information in the data to support the claim that the trait is
beneficial. Evolution of a new trait need not be always beneficial. Therefore, we cannot accept
this statement.
B) Trait B is more beneficial for chipanzee survival because it is older
This statement could be true, but for the fact that it was found in fossils as old as 55 million
years ago. Chimpanzees evolved 30 million years ago. It could very well be possible that the
chimpanzees outgrew this trait. Hence we cannot accept this statement.
C) Trait A is more likely to be widespread among the primate species because it is newer.
This is an incorrect statement. Trait A evolved only 12 million years back. By this time, the
lineage of chimpanzees had already separated from the earlier primate species. Therefore, the
trait will not be present among oth.

System, a multilevel system consisting of an array of acute and long-term services. You have
been given the task of developing an information system that will track clients over time and
place. The system will be used for clinical, financial, and management purposes. • What basic
components are essential to the system? • What challenges and barriers do you anticipate will be
encountered in planning and implementing the system? • What are the first steps you will take to
design the system? • What recent external developments enhance and impede your project?
Solution
Information System for Health Care System is very complex because it involves three important
factors like clinical ,financial and management purpose
1)Clinical Purpose like-It include results of blood lead screening of children under 5 years of
age,immunization status and encounter data recording the results of patients visiting for the test
of tuberculosis some have negative report others have positive ,if patient with positive report
then maintaining there data to monitor and record patient history and sexually transmitted
diseases
2)Financial Purpose-
I)Payroll: Handles all the recurring and non-recurring payments and deductions for employees.
All recurring transactions can be automatically generated each payroll period with non-recurring
transactions such as overtime added to the payroll upon approval. It is also possible to maintain
employee pay rates, entitlements, full salary movements and payroll histories.
II)Patient Accounting: This concentrates on financial transactions generated during a patient’s
visit to the hospital. These include inpatient and outpatient charges, doctors’ fees generated
across the hospital, the cost of procedures, operations and medications.
III)Accounts Payable: Handles the processing of invoices and payments within the hospital.
IV)Accounts Receivable: This provides support for and the maintenance of the records of all
clients, invoices and payments
3)Management Purpose-
c. Resource planning and control –

need help with this java lab please read below and follow the steps.pdf
need help with this java lab: please read below and follow the steps! Copy and paste the code at
the bottom into your ide and go from there, please do not write a whole new program!
The purpose of this lab is to give you an opportunity to make use of a stack in the
implementation of a backtracking algorithm.
This problem is generally referred to as the N Queens problem. The gist of the problem is to
create an algorithm which can position N queens on a chess board so none of the queens can
attack any other queen. For those of you who may not be familiar with chess, the queen can
move horizontally, vertically, and diagonally. In the generalized N Queens problem, N represents
the number of rows and columns of the game board and the number of queens that must be
placed on the board in safe positions.
we will NOT be using recursion in any way to solve this problem.
The basic strategy that we will employ to solve this problem is to use backtracking. In this
particular case, what backtracking means is that we will make a move that is safe for a queen at
the time we make the move, but later on, we may discover that we are stuck and there is no safe
move available for the next queen we are trying to place on the board, so we must backtrack.
That means we will go back to the previous queen’s move, undo that move, and continue
searching for another safe place to put that queen. We will use the stack to remember where we
have placed queens on the board and when we need to back up, the queen at the top of the stack
will be popped and we will use that queen’s position to resume the search for the next safe
location.Stradegy below:
There are N rows. When a queen is placed into a row, that row cannot be used by other queens.
There are N columns. When a queen is placed into a column, that column cannot be used by
other queens.
There are 2 sets of diagonals to be concerned with, diagonals running upper left to lower right
and diagonals running upper right to lower left. There is a simple mathematical relationship
between N and the number of diagonals in each direction. When a queen is placed onto the
board, one left to right diagonal is no longer safe for other queens, and one right to left diagonal
is no longer safe for other queens.
Our approach to placing the queens on the board will be to use nested loops. As an example the
outer loop will be in control of which column we are currently searching for a spot to place a
queen. So, the first queen we place will be in column 0, and when the outer loop has completed
we will have placed N queens on the board, one in each column.
The inner loop will iterate through the rows, from 0 to N-1 until it finds a row R such that row R
is not taken by another queen, AND the 2 diagonals which intersect row R and the current
column are not taken by another queen. IF we find such a safe location, we push the current row,
column value onto a stack. Note: we can use the Java Point class to store the row and column
numbers in th.

Place all the characteristics of living organisms the answer box. Characteristics shared by all
living organisms Some machines and computers accomplish tasks that make them seem
somewhat like living organisms, yet it is clear that these things are not living organisms. What
characteristics do living organisms have that make them alive?
Solution
Living organism have the following charecteristics.
Q.2 computers or rather robots imitate organism like behaviour but there are few things which
keeps living organism apart like the capacity to reproduce,feel, think (not the preloaded

Of 10 fish in a pond 4 are tagged. If three fish are caught and not thrown back into the pond what
is the probability that fewer than two of them are tagged?
Solution
Binomial Distribution
PMF of B.D is = f ( k ) = ( n k ) p^k * ( 1- p) ^ n-k
Where
k = number of successes in trials
n = is the number of independent trials
p = probability of success on each trial
tagged (p) = 4/10 = 0.4
P( X < 2) = P(X=1) + P(X=0)
= ( 3 1 ) * 0.4^1 * ( 1- 0.4 ) ^2 + ( 3 0 ) * 0.4^0 * ( 1- 0.4 ) ^3
= 0.648.

It covers topics such as electron waves, temporal dynamics, and the implications of this model on particle physics. With clear illustrations and easy-to-follow explanations, readers will gain a new outlook on the universe's fundamental nature.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Which perspective best describes adolescenceWhen does adolescence.pdf
- 1. Which perspective best describes adolescence? When does adolescence actually begin and end? What factors are involved that influence an adolescent's development? Solution Adolescence is a transitional stage where in a child continues to metamorphose into an adult. In other words the stage that lies between or that bridges childhood and adulthood. Adolescence is a phase of major physiological changes. At this stage the pubertal changes start taking place. Secondary sexual characters start appearing in both the sexes. Adolescence prepares an individual for adulthood. It is characterized by labile emotions, outburst of emotions, swift and rapid behavioral changes, self-interest, self-conscious, etc.i t is the second most important stage of development after infancy. It involves rapid cognitive, sexual and physical development. The onset age of adolescence in females is 8 to 14 and in males it is 9 to 15. The data suggests the onset-age decide type of the behavioral changes that occur in adolescence. Factors influencing the age of adolescence are as follows- Biological factors like hormones etc Stress and stressful environment Body weight and body fat distribution Socioeconomic status Nature, niche, habit, peer, etc Presence of long standing illness Diet and exercise
