Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At eight months old, infants have developed depth perception and can differentiate between surfaces at different heights. However, they may not yet have developed a fear of heights or an understanding of the potential danger of falling off an edge. Therefore, Darius is likely to continue crawling across the "cliff" to reach his father, as he is responding to his father's call and does not perceive the danger of falling off.
