“Human development goes on for a lifetime, although two people are not equal, but the order of development remains same in normal children. Which principle of development does this statement point to?

Correct option is C

Principle of uniform pattern – Each child has a different rate of development. However, the development of all human beings follows a similar pattern, similar sequence. Sequential pattern of development can be seen in two directions,
(i) Cephalocaudal Sequence (Head to Toe) According to this principle, the child first gains control of the head, then the arms, then the legs.
(ii) Proximodistal Sequence This means that development proceeds from the centre of the body towards the outer parts of the body.
