Answer to Question 2

Neonatal vision tends to be nearsighted and limited in refinements. There is unclear evidence about whether neonates can detect colors, although their ability does develop within the first two months. Neonates have limited or no visual accommodation (focusing) ability and can see best with a 7-9 inch range. Neonates also lack the ability to control their eye muscles, so they are unable to look at very close objects. They are also able to track objects. They prefer to view objects that are moving.

Neonatal hearing is more advanced than neonatal vision, with the level of hearing about even with those of adults. Neonates are able to detect differences in pitch and amplitude, although they prefer high-pitched sounds. Neonates recognize the sound of their mother's voice and are responsive to human voices as well as able to detect the difference in speech sounds.
