Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is  Increased crystallized intelligence.

Explanation:

Usually, Increased crystallized intelligence develops slowly, remains relatively stable through most maturity, and then starts to decrease after age 65. Based on the ability assessment as well as the survey format, the precise peak age of cognitive skills remains uncertain. This concept is part of psychologist Raymond Cattel's General Intelligence theory (1971).
