For ordering purposes, we treat babyhood as the earliest neonatal/early-baby phase, followed by infancy, then the universally accepted stages thereafter.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Proceed from earliest dependency to mature independence: babyhood → infancy → childhood → adolescence → adulthood.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) d (Babyhood).2) a (Infancy).3) b (Childhood).4) e (Adolescence).5) c (Adulthood).
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They misorder adolescence/childhood or put adulthood before earlier stages, or place babyhood after later stages.
Final Answer:
d, a, b, e, c
