Fill in the blank(s) with correct word
10, 12
ten, twelve
Rationale: Between the ages of 10 to 12 months, an infant can usually stand alone and walk while holding on to objects. Gross motor development is the ability to use large muscle groups to maintain balance and postural control or locomotion. Locomotion, the ability to move from place to place without assistance, is dependent on head control and sitting without support. A variety of skills such as rolling over, bearing weight, moving forward on all extremities, and standing upright without assistance are also necessary for locomotion. Once these skills are developed, the infant will be able to move forward (walk), first with assistance, such as holding on to objects, and then alone.
