a type of baby food
B
a nursery rhyme

a reaction that happens automatically
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the first six months, babies learn to make other sounds besides crying, such as cooing and laughing. These early sounds are not made on purpose; they are a reflex that the baby doesn’t consciously control. As babies continue to develop, their babbling begins to sound more and more like conversation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Babbling is an essential phase of speech development in a child. In this stage, an infant appears to be experimenting with creating first words but is not quite ready. Babbling is one way to measure how a child’s language is developing.

Detailed explanation-3: -Months 6-7: Reduplicated babbling – repeating the same syllable (ba-ba, na-na). Months 8-9: Variegated babbling – mixing different sounds (ba de da). Months 10-11: Jargon – complex babbling with simple words (baba da ma ball da).
