Cognitive Neuroscience is a field of study that focuses on the:

  1. Neural mechanisms of behavior

  2. Biological basis of learning

  3. Genetic basis of psychology

  4. Developmental psychology of cognition

The correct answer is: Neural mechanisms of behavior

Cognitive Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary field that aims to understand how the brain allows us to think, learn, and remember. This involves studying the neural mechanisms of behavior, like how the brain processes information, makes decisions, and controls behavior. While the other options may be related to aspects of cognitive neuroscience, they do not fully capture the scope of the field. B and D focus more on how learning and cognition develop over time, whereas C focuses on genetics rather than the neural mechanisms of behavior. Therefore, A is the most accurate and comprehensive answer.
