Answer to Question 1

A
In the 1970s, nurses working in genetics provided genetic counseling to persons with genetic diseases or risk factors for such disorders. The other activities performed by the nurse did not occur until the 1990s.

Answer to Question 2

D
Children with cognitive disabilities under the age of six and from low-income families are at the highest risk for abuse or neglect. Children who have developmental delays, mental retardation, or physical disabilities are not at increased risk.
