Which stage is not part of the five stages of life?

The five stages of life typically encompass the stages of development that organisms go through as they mature, which often include infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood (or maturity), and old age (or death). The stages focus on biological and developmental changes rather than educational phases.

Education, while crucial in human development, is not considered a distinct biological stage of life like growth, maturity, and death. It represents a process that can occur at various points and across different stages but is not a stage in and of itself. Growth refers to the physical development of an organism, maturity signifies the achieved state of development, and death represents the final stage of life. Thus, education does not fit within the framework of these fundamental life stages.
