Arrange the human life stages in the correct order. (Correcting typo: “Bobyhood” → “Boyhood”.) a) Childhood b) Adulthood c) Infancy d) Adolescence e) Boyhood

Introduction / Context:
We order life stages from earliest to latest. The item “Bobyhood” is clearly a typo; applying the Recovery-First Policy, we correct it to “Boyhood,” a common term used between childhood and adolescence in some classifications.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Infancy is the earliest postnatal phase.
• Childhood follows infancy.
• Boyhood is a sub-period within late childhood for males (used here as an intermediate label).
• Adolescence is the puberty/teen phase.
• Adulthood is maturity.

Concept / Approach:
Chronology: Infancy -> Childhood -> Boyhood -> Adolescence -> Adulthood. Although “boyhood” and “childhood” overlap conceptually, many logical-sequence questions position boyhood after general childhood to indicate later childhood.

Step-by-Step Solution:
Step 1: Infancy (c).Step 2: Childhood (a).Step 3: Boyhood (e) as later childhood.Step 4: Adolescence (d).Step 5: Adulthood (b).

Verification / Alternative check:
Many aptitude books adopt this ordering when both “childhood” and “boyhood” appear together; the essence is youngest -> older child -> teen -> adult.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Any order that places adulthood before adolescence, or adolescence before childhood, contradicts age progression.

Common Pitfalls:
Treating boyhood and childhood as identical. In these questions, “boyhood” signals a later sub-stage.

Final Answer:
c, a, e, d, b
