The improved judgment and impulse control that occur as adolescents grow older is made possible by thedevelopment ofa. primary sex characteristics. b.secondary sex characteristics. c.the frontal lobes. d.the limbic system.

The answer is Option C: The frontal lobes.

Explanation:

Researchers have found there is a difference between the way that teen brains work when compared to adults. Whereas an adult uses the prefrontal cortex to think, the teenager uses the amygdala. The adult therefore thinks with the rational part of the brain that governs rational responses, good judgment and the capacity to think of the long-term consequences of our actions. Teens on the other hand make sense of informational inputs through the emotional part of their brains.  That’s why we can notice that teens have strong emotional responses to events. They were feeling more than they were thinking about an issue and it is often hard for them to explain their thought process. Experts say the frontal lobes are not fully developed until around age 25 or so.
