A.

9–19 years

B.

12–19 years

C.

10–19 years

D.

More than 19 years

Correct option is C


Sol. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the age group of 10–19 years is classified as adolescence. This period marks the transition from childhood to adulthood, involving rapid physical, psychological, and social development.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) 9–19 years – Begins earlier than WHO’s official definition, which starts at age 10.
· (b) 12–19 years – Misses early adolescent years (10–11), hence not a full representation.
· (c) 10–19 years – Correct. This is the standard WHO-defined adolescent age range.
· (d) More than 19 years – Individuals beyond 19 are considered youth or young adults, not adolescents.
