c. Thomas learns how to count by practicing counting with a variety of household objects.
d. Tammy can hold and use a pencil more easily than she could last year.

Answer 1

D) Tammy can hold and use a pencil more easily than she could last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Physical development consists in the evolution of the human body, which develops motor and coordination skills as the stages of childhood evolve. This is very noticeable in children, for example, when a baby begins to walk, he or she initially becomes unbalanced. However, over time, the child develops balance and begins to walk normally thanks to his/her physical and intellectual development that gives him/her motor conditions. The same can be true of Tammy, who finds she can hold a pencil more easily than in the past. After physical evolution, she had improved coordination ability to hold the pencil more firmly.
