An adult is a human being or living organism that is of relatively mature age, typically associated with sexual maturity and the attainment of reproductive age. In human context, the term has other subordinate meanings associated to social and legal concepts, for example a legal adult is a legal concept for a person who has attained the age of majority and is therefore regarded as an independent, self-sufficient, and responsible (contrast with "minor"). Adulthood can be defined in terms of physiology, psychological adult development, law, personal character, or social status.

A. Basically you have biological traits that are genetic...they are from your genes and DNA. They last from birth to death because they are fundamental to your physiological make-up. They stay the same because they are permanent. Personality or character traits are more often chosen to be "This is how I behave." Chosen partly because "This is the way I want to be as a person" and partly because "This is the way I want other people to see me." Yet these traits, too, even though chosen, last a long time, perhaps throughout one's life time, because once displayed they are reinforced by the social setting and so we condtinue to keep them for their positive social values. Here's a list of just a few of the many such traits you yourself can… [cont.]

Why are humans only animals to drink milk into adulthood?
Q. I was wondering why humans are the only creature who continue to drink milk into adulthood? Why do people think milk is good for you when it's just full of sugar, fat, and chemicals that dairy producer give to cows to produce unnatural amounts of milk?
