Question

15. How might adolescents’ tendency to engage in such risky behaviors as unsafe sex and experimental drug use reflect brain development during childhood and adolescence?
a) The limbic system does not develop fully until early adulthood; adolescents therefore have a poor understanding of their own emotions
