Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Motor skills develop in highly individualized ways and can be influenced by a variety of factors such as genetics, environment, and experience. While there may be typical developmental milestones for different age ranges, the rate and style of development can vary greatly between individuals. There is also no evidence to suggest that motor skill development follows a strict and predetermined pattern, such as cephalocaudal development (from head to toe).
