Which statement about Human Development is false ?

  • A.Development includes sequential pattern of growth
  • B.Human development starts at birth
  • C.The different domains of development are interdependent
  • D.Development is continuous

Answer: B

The false statement is Human development starts at birth.

Human development begins at conception. The prenatal period, from conception through the germinal, embryonic and foetal stages to birth, is the first period of the life span, and development during it shapes later growth.

The other three are accepted principles of development: it follows a sequential, predictable pattern; its physical, cognitive, social and emotional domains are interdependent; and it is continuous, going on from conception to death.
