Answer 2

c) lack of lateralization

Step-by-step explanation:

Lateralization is the ability of the brain to separate functions to specific parts of the brain, it is a kind of specialization. In the case of Maddy, the process of judging distance and direction is not properly separated in the brain hence she cannot clearly judge distance and direction.
