Respuesta :

Answer:

C. continuity-discontinuity controversy      

Explanation:

The continuity approach says that change is a gradual and continuous process. A Child becomes more skillful in talking, thinking, or acting a lot the same way as they get elder or taller. The discontinuity approach says development is an abrupt process-a sequence of changes that construct different behaviors at different ages.

Discontinuity includes:

1. lack of cohesion or continuity.

2. Gap sense.
