Explain which two ecological systems have the most influence during middle adulthood

Microsystem: examples include but are not limited to family members, teachers, friends, and neighbors; how do these factors interact with the individual and how does the individual impact these factors?

Mesosystem: this level emphasizes relationships and interactions among members of the microsystem, such as the dynamic between parents and the child's teacher or the spouse and the individual's friends; are there dynamics that play a role in how the individual developed?

Exosystem: here the environment can directly influence the individual, but the individual does not have a reciprocal role; an example would be a parent's place of employment or inadequate healthcare facilities; what factors within this system impacted the individual?

Macrosystem: this level reflects the cultural influences of the individual, such as their socioeconomic status (SES) or race; again, the individual may not impact this level, but this can influence them; how and why did aspects of the macrosystem impact the individual's development?

Chronosystem: here the historical context and change over the individual's lifespan can exact influence, including policy and social norms; for example, the legalization of same-sex marriage may influence an individual's willingness to be open about their sexual orientation and seek out a family. Utilizing the individual's age, what historical contexts may help explain the how and why of the individual's development?
