Explanation:

First Question (Adolescents' Erikson Stage)

Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages: adolescents (12 - 18) face "identity vs. confusion" to develop self - identity. "Generativity vs. stagnation" is for middle - aged, "isolation vs. intimacy" for young adults, "trust vs. mistrust" for infants.

Object permanence is the understanding that objects exist even when out of sight. Madeline knows the cookie is under the napkin, showing she has object permanence. Egocentrism is self - centered thinking, reversibility is mental operation reversal, stranger anxiety is fear of strangers.

Answer:

B. identity vs. confusion
