Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale:
1. A child who has developed object permanence has the ability to understand that even though something is out of sight, it still exists.
2. Centration is when a child focuses only on one particular aspect of a situation.
3. Transductive reasoning is when a child connects two events in a causeeffect relationship because they have occurred at the same time.
4. Conservation is when a child knows that matter is not changed when its form is altered.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback
A Rubbing the infant does stimulate crying, but it is not the main reason for drying
the infant.
B Drying the infant after birth does not remove all of the maternal blood.
C Infants are wet with amniotic fluid and blood at birth, which accelerates
evaporative heat loss.
D The main purpose of drying the infant is to prevent heat loss.
