Answer to Question 1

C
Eating finger foods is a gross motor skill. Tying shoes, buttoning shirts, and cutting with a knife require fine motor development.

D
Primary hypersomnia begins between 15 and 30 years of age. Nighttime sleep may last from 8 to 12 hours and daytime naps may last for more than 1 hour, and are not caused by any other physical or mental health disorder.
