What are adaptive devices?

1. Legal documents

2. Equipment for daily living tasks

3. Biological processes

4. State of excessive activity

The correct answer is: Equipment for daily living tasks

Adaptive devices are tools or equipment designed to assist individuals in performing daily living tasks more easily and independently. This can include a wide range of implements such as grab bars for the bathroom, specialized utensils for eating, or wheelchairs to ensure mobility. The primary purpose of adaptive devices is to enhance the capability of individuals, particularly those with disabilities or mobility issues, allowing them to carry out activities of daily life that might otherwise be challenging. The other options refer to different concepts. Legal documents are formal papers that hold significance in law, biological processes pertain to the functions and activities of living organisms, and a state of excessive activity could refer to hyperactivity or agitation, none of which relate to the support and facilitation of daily living that adaptive devices provide.
