Answer: D - The three age groups that experience the most extreme and rapid growth are the fetus prenatally, the infant, and the adolescent. Infants, for example, typically double their birth weight by 6 months of age and triple their birth weight by the time they are one year old. The toddler, preschooler, and school-age children are characterized by much slower growth rates.
