Answer 1

1.Adults may not have memories for experiences that occurred early in childhood as from the first three to four years of our lives-in fact, we tend to remember very little of life before the age of seven.And when we do try to think back to our earliest memories, it is often unclear whether they are the real things or just recollection based on photos or stories told us by other. The phenomeon,known as "Childhood Amnesia"

2.Psychological stressors in early life,there are elevated rates of morbidity and mortality from chronic diseases of aging. The most compelling data come from studies of children raised in poverty or maltreated by their parents, who show heightened vulnerability to vascular disease,autoimmune disorders,and premature mortality. These finding raise challenging theoretical questions.The childhood stress gets "programmed" into macrophages through epigenetic markings,post-translational ,and tissue remodeling For example:- As human exposed in daily life to the multitude of stressors that are prevalent in modern society some extend might be considered normal and even necessary for survival and regular psychological development .Other hand some negative affective causes such as feeling of anxiety and depression, exerting in turn direct effect on biological processes or behavioral pattern, and consequently influencing the immune systems,susceptibilty to infection, and risk of diseass, including cancer.

3.As for 1 year old child like to play peek-a-boo this game is peekaboo,thst old standby, is still one of the best hames ever invented.because it stimulates baby's senses, builds gross motor skill, strengthens her/his visual tracking, encourages her/his social development and, best of all,tickles her/his sense of humor.plus, peekaboo teaches object permanence:the idea that even though she/he can't see something (like your smiling face), it still exists. As 7 year old child continue to grow,you will notice new and exciting abilities that your child develops. while children may progress at different rates and have diverse interests,the following are some of the common milestones children may reach in this age :

• Enjoy many activities and stay busy
• Likes to paint and draw
• jumps rope
• ride a bike
