Answer to Question 1

B
The manner and intensity of how a child expresses pain are dependent on the individual child's experiences. It is a myth that neonates do not feel pain. Neonates do express a total-body response to pain with a cry that is intense, high pitched, and harsh sounding. It is a myth that children do not remember pain. Children of all ages have been reported to have sleeping and eating disruptions after painful experiences. Not all children will cry to express pain.

Answer to Question 2

1530
1530 mL

1500 mL/day + 20 mL/kg/day for each additional kg over 20 kg. 1500 + 30 = 1530.
