Answer to Question 1

creep

At 7 months the infant begins to crawl, using arms and dragging trunk and legs. At 9 months the infant begins to creep, holding his or her trunk above the floor. The next self-mobility activity is cruising, where the child walks from one piece of furniture to the next before it begins to walk independently.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D, E
Home-prepared infant food can be strained and pureed in an electric blender. Sugar should be added sparingly. Food should be boiled in small amounts of water and not over cooked to avoid destroying nutrients. Foods may be frozen in ice cube trays and defrosted for use.
