Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Sigmund Freud’s psycho-sexual developmental theory outlines the following stages in order:

1. Oral Stage (birth–1 year): Focuses on oral stimulation such as sucking and eating, which is crucial for pleasure and trust-building.
2. Anal Stage (1–3 years): Concentrates on bowel and bladder control, symbolizing the development of independence and self-control.
3. Phallic Stage (3–6 years): Involves recognition of gender differences, with significant attention to parental attachment and curiosity about sexuality.
4. Genital Stage (puberty onward): Focuses on mature sexual relationships and reproduction, marking the culmination of personality development.

Freud’s framework provides valuable insights into the psychological and emotional development of individuals.
