Answer 1

C; a kitten gains weight

Answer 2

The answer is: c) A kitten gains weight.

Both examples are about growth.

A major growth of children happens at the time of puberty, usually between 8 to 13 years of age in girls and 10 to 15 years in boys.

A balanced diet will help kids reach their full growth potential.
