Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback

crossing the midline.
B The crude pincer grasp is apparent at approximately age 9 months.
C The child can scribble spontaneously at age 15 months.
D At age 12 months, the child can release cubes into a cup.

A This is indicative of normal development. Reflexive grasping occurs during the
first 2 to 3 months and then gradually becomes voluntary.
B The infant is expected to be able to perform this task by age 3 months. If the
child's age is corrected because of being 2 weeks preterm, the child is at the
midpoint of the range for this developmental task.
C The infant is expected to be able to perform this task by age 3 months. If the
child's age is corrected because of being 2 weeks preterm, the child is at the
midpoint of the range for this developmental task.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
