Answer to Question 1

C
The newborn's head circumference should be equal to or greater than the chest circumference. It should not exceed the chest measurement by more than 4 cm (1.6 inches).

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
A taboo is an action that is not acceptable to a culture. Dating before the age of 18 years being taboo means that it is not permitted to be done. This does not mean that everyone dates before the age of 18 years or that dating is done with permission or in large groups only.
