Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Babies respond to sound starting at about 24 weeks of gestation is an accurate statement. That must have been a coincidence; babies can't respond like that is inaccurate. Acoustic stimulations can evoke a fetal heart rate response. There is no such thing as an aural reflex. The statement, Let me know if it happens again; we need to report that to your midwife is not appropriate; it gives the impression that something is wrong.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
These milestones human development occur at approximately 28 weeks.
