Detailed Explanation & Solution
Detailed Explanation
According to Noam Chomsky's theory of 'Universal Grammar' and the 'Language Acquisition Device' (LAD), children possess an innate biological capacity for language acquisition.
- Neuro-cognitive Perspective: The Broca's area (speech production) and Wernicke's area (language comprehension) provide functional form to this biological capacity.
- Inclusive Education: In modern inclusive classrooms, leveraging this innate capacity of children strengthens multilingual pedagogy.
Therefore, option (c) is the most appropriate and correct statement.
