    Answer:Jonathan doesn't yet demonstrate conservation.

    Explanation:

    What does conservation mean?

    Conservation defines the ability to use logic in differentiating that quantity doesn't change because the shape, container or size of something is adjusted.

    This is according to the psychologist Jean Piaget.

    This ability is not developed earlier in a child's life, it is absent in their pre-operational stage when they are still aged 2-7 years but it becomes present in the concrete operational stage.
