What is the process of maturation or growth called?

Diabetes
Development
Diet
Digestion

The correct answer is: Development

The process of maturation or growth is accurately referred to as development. Development encompasses the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes that occur as an individual progresses through different stages of life, from infancy to adulthood and beyond. It involves not just biological growth but also the enhancement of skills and capabilities. Diabetes, on the other hand, is a medical condition related to blood sugar regulation and does not pertain to growth or maturation processes. Diet refers to the foods and drinks consumed, while digestion is the physical and chemical breakdown of food into nutrients. Neither of these terms relates to the overall process of growth and maturation.
