Caitlin is a typical adolescent. She just learned that her dad is being transferred to another city far from Caitlin's current f
riends and familiar surroundings. Caitlin is very emotional about the news, cries uncontrollably, and runs off to a friend's house during the night. Her older sister seems relatively unaffected by the news. From a developmental perspective, what might explain the difference?a. During adolescence, the prefrontal lobe is developing more slowly than the emotion center in the brain. b. During adolescence, the corpus callosum shows the greatest increase in size and stimulates emotions.
c. During adolescence, neurological changes occur rapidly and brain functions are less integrated.
d. During adolescence, myelination of axons slows the development of the judgment and decision making center of the brain.
Prefrontal lobe is the part of the prefrontal cortex that helps in developing various function and behaviors in a person which is in adolescence is develop slower than emotion center. It is responsible for the managing emotional reactions.
Caitlin is in adolescence so her emotion center is more developed than the prefrontal lobe so she is affected more than her older sister.
