Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The article specifically mentions "hands-on caring" and describes the acts as "supportive," which implies activities that directly involve taking care of the child or helping the primary caregiver. Task-based is the most fitting adjective in this context. Option B could also be true, but it is not mentioned in the text that the acts are invisible. Option C is unlikely, as it seems out of place in the context of caring for children.
