The fact that younger infants were interested but not afraid while older infants indicated fear suggests that fear of depth requires learning and experience. This implies that younger infants' perception of depth is not yet fully developed and they do not have the experience to associate it with danger. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Option A is incorrect because younger infants can perceive depth and have depth perception. Option B is incorrect because size constancy is not related to the experiment. Option D is incorrect because only option C is correct.
