Answer to Question 1

F
There are special growth charts available for premature or very low birth weight infants,
and children with specific conditions that may affect size and growth (i.e., Down
syndrome).

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback
A The calorie count of formula and breast milk is about the same.
B All of the essential amino acids are in both formula and breast milk. The
concentrations may differ.

infection.
