Answer: Option A , option B, option D

Explanation: There are many identical physical markers that tells that a child is ready for taking solid along with milk.

Some of the identifications are: The disappearance of extrusion reflex in which the child no longer pushes the tongue outwards.

Secondly, the child is not able to sit with support for the intake of food.

Thirdly, the child can control her head and neck so that there is no problem in ingestion of food.
