3. What connection does the author draw between the adolescent brain and peer pressure?
O A Adolescent brains, like adult brains, show no reaction
to the influence of peers when making decisions.
OB Because schools focus on educating students in a
group setting, adolescent brains lack the solitude
needed to make good choices.
OC Adolescent brain activity increases with social
interaction, which could help student achievement at
a higher level than working alone.
OD Because teens are motivated by social interaction,
their decision-making abilities are impaired and they
are more likely to take dangerous risks.
