Alice has misplaced her keys (which rarely happens), but her grandchildren are very worried that something might be wrong with grandma. never mind that her granddaughter has done the same thing three times this week. the above is an example ofselect one: a. an age-based double standard. b. an age-based stereotype. c. the beginning signs of alzheimer's disease. d. senility.

a. an age-based double standard.

Explanation:

An age-based double standard takes place when an old person's memory fails and people consider it to be less serious than in the case of a young person. This attribution happens because people assume that an older person has his/her mental health more deteriorated (whether in memory, concentration, etc.) than a young person, and it is somehow naturally expected to be that way. In this case, Alice's grandchildren did not take notice of her granddaughter's episode but focus their attention on her instead because of her age.
