Piaget's theory of development focuses on:

  1. Cognitive and language development

  2. Social and emotion development

  3. Motor and physical development

  4. Memory and perception development

The correct answer is: Cognitive and language development

Piaget's theory of development is a well-known theory that focuses on a child's cognitive and language development. This theory believes that children develop through different stages, where they learn to think and solve problems in a more complex manner as they grow older. The other options, such as social and emotion development (B), motor and physical development (C), and memory and perception development (D), are important aspects of child development but they are not the main focus of Piaget's theory. This theory is specifically about how children acquire knowledge and understanding of the world, making option A the most accurate and relevant choice.
