D)wish to assert their independence from adults in every possible way.
The CORRECT ANSWER IS C)
C)place a different value on the possible consequences than do adults.
Explanation:
Diverse research have shown that adolescents place a different value on the possible consequences of risk in specific areas than adults do but that they perceive the risks as it doesn't deny adolescents from undertaking these risk-taking behavior.
Neuroimaging research reveals that adolescents may have a higher emotional satisfaction with risk-taking behavior. This satisfaction can expose adolescents to pertake in behavior not minding the risks attached.
In the adult brain, we can pinpoint that the limbic section of the brain (emotion center) and the prefrontal cortex (judgment and reasoning center) are well established when perceiving images that shows risks unlike in the adolescent brain, after perceiving the same risks, the limbic area is well established, with little or no activity in the prefrontal cortex. Such kind of emotional-cognitive asynchrony could cause an adolescents to misjudged other’s feelings and emotions, whereas emotional-physical asynchrony could lead to adolescents being considered as older than their emotional level of development.
