Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Conservation refers to a logical thinking ability that allows a person to determine that a certain quantity will remain the same despite adjustment of the container, shape, or apparent size, according to the psychologist Jean Piaget.

Detailed explanation-2: -Conservation is the understanding that something stays the same in quantity even though its appearance changes. This can apply to aspects such as volume, number, area etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -Conservation, in child development, is a logical thinking ability first studied by Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget. In short, being able to conserve means knowing that a quantity doesn’t change if it’s been altered (by being stretched, cut, elongated, spread out, shrunk, poured, etc).

Detailed explanation-4: -7 to 11 years: Concrete operational stage (Logical thought) At this stage, children start to show logical thinking about concrete events. They start to grasp the concept of conservation. They understand that, even if things change in appearance but some properties still remain the same.

Detailed explanation-5: -This is the principle, which Piaget called the theory of conservation, in which the child realizes that properties of objects-such as mass, volume, and number-remain the same, despite changes in the form of the objects.
