Based on their research, some scientists believe that:
a.   adolescents who commit violent crimes should be tried as adults because their cognitive abilities and moral reasoning abilities are like those of an adult.
b.   the brain is not fully mature until the early to mid-twenties, so adolescents should not be held fully
   responsible for violent acts that they commit before that time.
c.   the human brain is fully developed around 10 years of age, so the risky, dumb, or criminal things adolescents do should be blamed entirely on hormonal changes.   
d.   adolescents should be considered as adults in the eyes of the law as soon as they have completed
   puberty, because physically they are adults at that point.
