A

Explanation:

Anita's mother uses the same ice cream scoop to put ice cream into one large bowland one small bowl. Anita is upset because she thinks her brother's small bowl holds more ice cream than her large bowl. Anita has not yet acquired conservation

Conservation is the act of not allowing any resources to be wasted. In this case Anita does not know that by her mum putting the ice cream in a smaller bowl she is making sure the ice cream is not wasted. Anita doesnt understand that and has not acquired it.
