Answer:

The suboptimal organization of their Central Nervous System explains their hypervigillance

Step-by-step explanation:

Babies born with the weight of 1500g, compare to normal weight of 2500-4500g are said to be of very low birthweight.

Their hyperactive brain is associated with poorer white matter organization,reduced ability to think abstractly,to solve new problems.and failure to associate relationship among variables.(LOWER FLUID INTELLIGENCE)

Thus, heir brain is less proactive but more active than Normal weight Children . Therefore their Brain always react as if they experience somehing new each time of encouter.They are less often prepared more surprised with each life occurrence.With increases risk of anxiety.
