Jean Piaget has given four stages of cognitive development:
The Sensorimotor stage is the first stage that lies from Birth to 18–24 months old. In this stage, infants "THINK' with their eyes, ears and hands. The Pre-operational Stage is the second stage lies from 2 to 7 years old. The Concrete Operational Stage is the third stage that lies from 7 to 11 years old. The Formal Operational Stage is the fourth stage that lies from Adolescence to adulthood.
Hence, the correct answer is, 'Sensorimotor stage.'

Girl students are as good at Mathematics as boys of their age. Abilities and skills are not limited to a particular gender. Capabilities in Mathematics is nothing to do with gender. Both are equally capable. Girls are not less than boys in any sector, field.
Hence, this is the correct answer.

According to the theory of social learning of Albert Bandura, Modelling is a way through which behaviour is learned. Modelling is an activity where a child learns behaviour by imitating and copying the behaviour of others. When a child observes the behaviour of any person and then tries to copy or imitate that behaviour that means he is modelling the behaviour. Hence, the correct answer is, 'Modelling is a principal way for children to learn.'

A Concept map is a type of diagram that depicts relationships between concepts. The relationship is represented in circles or boxes; concepts are linked through words and phrases. These words and phrases explain the connection between ideas and help students understand information and concepts.
Hence, the correct answer is, 'Increase the ability to organize information logically.'

Howard Gardner (1983), an American Psychologist, proposed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences. In his book ‘Frames of Mind’, he pointed out that he did not believe there was “one form of cognition which cut across all human thinking. There are multiple intelligences with autonomous intelligence capacities.”
Verbal-Linguistic Ability:

• Linguistic Intelligence refers to the ability to use language.
• It is the capacity to use spoken and written words in a skilled way.
• Individuals with high verbal-linguistic intelligence are very good at using words and language to express themselves, articulate things, and create.
• They can use the language fluently and flexibly and creatively.
• They can learn various languages easily.
• Poets, writers, lawyers, journalists, teachers, politicians, philosophers, and speakers are very strong in this component of intelligence.
• Robert Frost, William Wordsworth, William Shakespeare, Gulzar, R.K. Narayan, Chetan Bhagat are some people high on verbal-linguistic intelligence. 

From the above, we can conclude that a person, who is a fluent speaker, is likely to possess the verbal-linguistic ability.

Cognitive validity requires that the content, process, language, and pedagogical practices of the curriculum should be age-appropriate and within the cognitive reach and understanding level of children. Key PointsCognitive validating includes:

• The consideration of the age of children while deciding the curriculum and concepts that need to be taught to them.
• Also considering the cognitive abilities and understanding abilities of children.
• Whatever the topics and concepts included in the curriculum should match the abilities of children and they should progress as students attend maturity.
• The flow of concepts should go from simple to complex as the children in their earlier stages can't understand the complex concepts.
• Cognitive validity ensures true learning and authentic learning as the students may connect with the concepts which are related to their cognitive ability.

Hence adapting the science curriculum as per the understanding level of students ensures its Cognitive validation.Additional Information

Function of an ecosystem involves:
The function of an ecosystem is a complex process that involves various components working together to sustain life. The main functions of an ecosystem include:
1. Energy flow:
- Ecosystems are powered by the flow of energy through food chains and food webs.
- Producers (plants) convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis.
- Consumers obtain energy by consuming other organisms.
- Decomposers break down organic matter and release energy.
2. Nutrient movement:
- Nutrients are essential for the growth and development of organisms in an ecosystem.
- Nutrients are cycled through biogeochemical cycles, such as the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles.
- Producers take up nutrients from the environment and incorporate them into their tissues.
- Consumers obtain nutrients by consuming other organisms.
- Decomposers break down organic matter and release nutrients back into the environment.
3. Interactions and relationships:
- Ecosystems are composed of numerous species that interact with each other.
- Predation, competition, symbiosis, and mutualism are common interactions in an ecosystem.
- These interactions help maintain the balance and stability of the ecosystem.
4. Ecological services:
- Ecosystems provide numerous benefits to humans and other organisms.
- They regulate climate, purify air and water, and provide habitats for various species.
- Ecosystems also provide resources such as food, timber, and medicines.
5. Biodiversity conservation:
- Ecosystems support a wide range of species, each with its own role and contribution.
- Conserving ecosystems is crucial for maintaining biodiversity and preventing species extinction.
In conclusion, the function of an ecosystem involves energy flow, nutrient movement, interactions and relationships, ecological services, and biodiversity conservation. These functions are interconnected and essential for the sustainability of life on Earth.

Key Points:
- The non-metal that is the best conductor of electricity is graphite.
- Graphite is a form of carbon that has a unique structure allowing it to conduct electricity.
- This is due to the presence of delocalized electrons in its structure.
- Delocalized electrons are free to move throughout the material, allowing for the flow of electric current.
- Graphite is commonly used as an electrode material in batteries and fuel cells.
- It is also used in electrical contacts, such as in switches and relays.
- Other non-metals, such as phosphorus, fluorine, and bromine, are not good conductors of electricity.
- Phosphorus is a poor conductor because it is a non-metal and does not have delocalized electrons.
- Fluorine is a non-metal with a very high electronegativity, making it highly reactive and unlikely to conduct electricity.
- Bromine, although it is a liquid at room temperature, is also a poor conductor of electricity due to its non-metallic properties.

As we move down a group in the periodic table, the tendency to lose electron increases.
Also when we move from left to right in a period, the tendency to lose electrons decreases. Combining these two results, K will lose the electron most easily.

The light rays pass through greater thickness of air because of which the light rays from the lower side of the sun are retracted more than those from the upper side. Because of unequal light bending, the sun looks oval and larger. 

Liquids will flow and fill up any shape of container. Solids like to hold their shape. In the same way that a large solid holds its shape, the atoms inside of a solid are not allowed to move around too much. Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want.
