You are visiting your sister, who has 4-year-old twins. They ask if they can have some milk and you are pouring it for them. One glass you choose is tall and thin and the other is short and wide. After you pour the milk, your niece is very unhappy because you gave "more" milk to your nephew. You actually gave each of them the same amount, but your niece and nephew lack the mental ability to ____.

Answer 1

The correct answer would be, Conserve.

You actually gave each of them the same amount, but your niece and nephew lack the mental ability to Conserve.
