Answer 1

Since the options are not given, I am giving a general answer.

The correct answer may be - social factors and cultural tools.

Cognitive development is a study regarding neuroscience and psychology that focuses on a child's development in terms of processing the information, conceptual resources, learning the languages, perceptual skills, and other brain development aspects when compared from an adult's point of view.

Cognitive development primarily depends on the interaction of the children with the other people who are present in the child's world, which makes it the social factors. It also depends on the tools which is provided by the culture to support the thinking of the child. These factors play an important role in the developmental process of the child.
