Answer to Question 1

B
Latex balloons account for a significant number of deaths from aspiration every year. Keeping toys with small parts and other small objects out of reach can prevent foreign body aspiration. Peanuts are just one of the foods that pose a choking risk if given to young children. Small objects, such as coins, need to be put out of the small child's reach.

Answer to Question 2

C
Wheezing is a classic manifestation of asthma. Inspiratory stridor is a clinical manifestation of croup. A harsh, barky cough is characteristic of croup. Rhinorrhea is not associated with asthma.
