💡 Correct Answer: a

📖Explanation: In Germany, the Juvenile Court Act stipulates that juveniles from the age of 14 are criminally responsible. This means that they can be held legally responsible for crimes. Juvenile criminal law differs from adult law because it is more focused on education and rehabilitation. In the event of violations of criminal laws, specific measures are taken aimed at correcting the behavior of young people and promoting their reintegration into society.
