    The best answer to your question: What is the psychological timepiece that records the major milestone in a person's life, would be, B: The social clock.

    Explanation:

    Although it is impossible to establish any kind of physilogical or anatomical connection to this factor, it is known that given cultural frameworks, and cultural norms and expectations, people tend to talk about the timelines and the periods under which it is expected for them as individuals, and as parts of a society, to cross certain milestones. So for example, in Western society, culturally speaking people are expected to perform, or cross, a series of social and real-life events like entering high school, entering college, marrying, having children, among others, within an expected timeframe. Therefore, in many nations belonging to Western culture people would expect a woman to be married by 25 (even if these norms have been adjusted currently), or for a man to be retired by age 75.

    And because these beliefs and customs have been ingrained in us by cultural learning, people measure these events happening at specific times of their lives and name it their social clock. Whenever a person oversteps the boundaries that are imposed by societal expectations, like having children, they say that their clock is ticking away.
