Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
An infant's head may become wedged between slats that are more than 3 inches apart. The crib should be painted with lead-free paint, which is safest and appropriate. The mattress needs to fit snugly to prevent suffocation. Replacing the side rail hardware so that the latches remain fastened is the appropriate action to ensure the safety of the crib.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
Early signs of hunger in a baby are rooting, lip smacking, and sucking on the hands. Crying is a late sign, and the baby's activity will increase, not decrease.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
