Question

Sommer Tominello · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  Children in the formal operations stage can solve problems systematically, which means they can create and test hypotheses and consider all possible solutions to a problem. This ability is not present in children in the concrete operations stage, who are limited to thinking in more concrete terms and rely more on trial and error than systematic problem-solving. Options B, C, and D are abilities that both concrete and formal operational children possess.
