Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The newborn and adult epidermis is similar in thickness and lipid composition, but skin development is not complete at birth. Fewer fibrils connect the dermis and epidermis in the newborn when compared with the adult.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Amoxicillin, ampicillin, and cephalosporins are effective against most organisms causing UTIs and are safe antibiotics during pregnancy. Tetracyclines are contraindicated during pregnancy because they cause retardation of bone growth and staining of the fetal teeth.
