1 month
B

C
9-10 months
D
12 months
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -“Around 6 months, they will probably recognize family members they see and interact with once a week. If they see members of your family or friends infrequently, it can take them longer to recognize these individuals.” Around 6 months, your baby will also start to recognize and respond to their own name.

Detailed explanation-2: -Summary. By six to nine months of age, your baby begins to realise they are a separate person surrounded by their own skin. Your baby loves to touch, grasp and ‘make things happen’. While your baby has been cooing and babbling for many weeks, their sounds now take on a closer resemblance to real words.

Detailed explanation-3: -Your baby is starting to understand the world around them. They can follow you with their eyes, look from one object to another, and focus on small objects. If they can, your baby will check what they see by grabbing and mouthing the object.

Detailed explanation-4: -6 month-olds remembered for about 2 weeks. What this study and others found is that throughout the baby and toddler years, children are capable of forming memories and holding them for increasingly longer periods of time (boosted by repeat exposure).

Detailed explanation-5: -Your baby can express emotions – laughing, squealing and smiling with happiness, joy and pleasure. At this age, your baby smiles when they want to. But your baby also grunts, frowns and cries if they’re angry or sad. When it comes to communicating, your baby might babble and make sounds like ‘baba’ or ‘gaga’.
