Aprofessor asks a group of 8-year-olds and a group of 16-year-olds to argue that they should receive a reduction in their allowance, an argument with which they all surely disagree. which of the following statements is a likely result of this study? a. almost none of the students will be able to do this. b. eight-year-olds will be able to do this, but 16-year-olds will be unable to do this. c. sixteen-year-olds will be able to do this, but 8-year-olds will be unable to do this. d. almost all of the students will be able to do this easily.

C. Sixteen-year-olds will be able to do this, but 8-year-olds will be unable to do this
