Explanation / Answer

32: A) the hippocampus and frontal lobes are immature during early infancy.

In the frontal lobes, at the time of infancy, there occurs lateralisation. As a result of this lateralisation, there is little knowledge about the thought process of infants. During infancy, there are different dynamics that play their roles in the region, with development of rhythmicity for the sleep wake cycle as well as the adaptability. Unless lateralisation is complete, the responses would not be understood.
