1. What is Physical Development (PD) according to your understanding?

According to my understanding, physical development is the developing process of

the body, particularly muscles and physical appearance that starts in human infancy and
continues into late adolescent concentrating on gross and fine motor skills as well as
puberty. 

2. What would happen to a child if the much-needed support is not given at this stage?

If a child did not get the much-needed support at prenatal, infant and childhood
stages, developmental delay might occur, in which, the children does not reach
their developmental milestones at the expected times. It is an ongoing major or minor
delay in the process of development.
