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.
