Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Although all the body systems of the newborn undergo changes, respiratory gas exchange along with circulatory modifications must occur immediately to sustain extrauterine life.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Almost any drug may cross into the acinar cells and be secreted in breast milk. As a general rule, the mother should take no drug unless prescribed or approved by her primary care provider while breastfeeding. Halting breastfeeding could impact the mother's ability to continue at a later time.
