The right answer is:
C. The brains of older ants that are not involved in gathering nourishment are the same size as those counterparts of the same age that do gather nourishment.
Explanation
<em>
If this statement were true it would seriously weaken the original argument because we would actually be taking into consideration age as well as activity of the ants.</em>
I’m pretty sure it’s C. David’s sin, I might be wrong though.
The theory that suggests that successful aging occurs when people maintain the interests, activities, and social interactions they pursued during middle age is known as <u>activity theory.</u>
According to the activity theory, which is also called the implicit theory of aging, the normal theory of aging, and the lay theory of aging, older persons who remain active and keep their social connections age successfully.
It adopts the stance that when older individuals are socially active, the aging process is postponed and life quality is improved. The disengagement idea was met with opposition from the activity theory.
The two main ideas that detailed successful aging in the early 1960s were the activity theory and the disengagement hypothesis. Robert J. Havighurst created the hypothesis in 1961.
Bernice Neugarten stated that maintaining personal ties and pursuits actively was necessary for happiness in old life in 1964.
