The question asks about the percentage of 12-year-olds and 15-year-olds who have had a special romantic relationship. Option A (5 percent and 15 percent) seems too low, as many adolescents begin to experience romantic interests around this age. Option B (10 percent and 70 percent) seems unlikely, as the jump from 10 percent to 70 percent from age 12 to 15 is too drastic. Option C (50 percent and 90 percent) may be too high, as not all adolescents may have had a special romantic relationship by age 15. Option D (25 percent and 50 percent) seems like the most reasonable and likely option, as it recognizes that some 12-year-olds may have experienced a special romantic relationship, but the percentage is lower than that of 15-year-olds.
