Answer: The correct answer is:
How is auditory information processed in the brain? (a)
Explanation:
Developmental psychology is the scientific study that answers the question of 'why' and 'how' humans change during the course of their existence. Historically, this field was originally concerned in children, but nowadays, it studies the whole lifespan of individuals including, adolescents, adult life and aging. Developmental psychology aims to explain changes in thinking, behavior and feelings change throughout life. Broadly, the field examines changes, in three major areas which are; physical development, cognitive development and social economic development.
From the list above, changes in neural connections affecting memory retrieval in older adults(cognitive); a child learning and understanding rules about how to behave in public (social economic) ; and how testosterone level affect sex drive in teenagers versus adults (physical) all fall under each of the three categories mentioned above, hence are more likely to be included in the research question to be answered, but how brain process auditory information is more of a physiological and anatomical investigation, and not a psychological quest.
