Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
During the 10th year, children become very interested in rules and fairness. Before this time, they gave younger children breaks in games, allowing extra turns or hints. Now, they strictly enforce rules. At age 7 years, imaginative play decreases and more props are used. Children who are 8 years old like table games but avoid competitive ones because they hate to lose. Twelve-year-olds enjoy all types of activities that may or may not include competition.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Most often, a newborn develops a Group B streptococcus infection during the birthing process when the newborn comes into contact with an infected birth canal. Improper handwashing, contaminated formula, and nonsterile catheter insertion would most likely lead to a late-onset infection, which typically occurs in the nursery due to horizontal transmission.
