An adult is a human being or other creature which has achieved physical and mental maturity. In humans, the age of achieving physical and mental adulthood varies between individuals, but most nations recognise a certain age as being the notional boundary. In the United States, and many other nations, this is eighteen, the age at which one is entitled to vote.
