Detailed explanation-1: -Middle adulthood, or middle age, is the time of life between ages 40 and 65. During this time, people experience many physical changes that signal that the person is aging, including gray hair and hair loss, wrinkles and age spots, vision and hearing loss, and weight gain, commonly called the middle age spread.
Detailed explanation-2: -This period lasts from 20 to 40 years depending on how these stages, ages, and tasks are culturally defined. The most common definition by chronological age for middle adulthood is from 40 to 65, but there can be a range of up to 10 years (ages 30-75) on either side of these parameters.
Detailed explanation-3: -Adulthood is divided into three stages: (1) early, (2) middle, and (3) late adulthood. Early adulthood starts at age 18 or 21 and continues until the mid-30s. During middle adulthood, people start to show signs of aging. Late adulthood is when most people retire from work and reflect on their life.
