Question

1. evaluating. appraise the significance of changes occurring during adolescence: what effects do changing hormone levels have on emotions?

Explanation:

Hormonal changes during adolescence, like increased estrogen and testosterone, impact the brain's neurotransmitters (e.g., serotonin, dopamine). This can lead to mood swings, heightened emotions (such as more intense feelings of happiness or irritability), and increased sensitivity to stress. These hormonal shifts also influence the development of emotional regulation skills.

Hormonal changes during adolescence can cause mood swings, more intense emotions, and affect emotional regulation as they impact neurotransmitters in the brain.
