Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Working memory and the ability to control impulses are both cognitive skills that are important for solving conservation problems. Tactile differences in objects and gross motor skills are not directly related to conservation. Long-term memory and the ability to recognize emotions may be important for other aspects of development, but not specifically for conservation.
