Answer to Question 1

C
Breast milk contains sufficient nutrients to meet the infant's needs and has 20 kcal/oz.

Answer to Question 2

C
When a client experiences acute inspiratory stridor with sternal retractions, it is an indication of respiratory distress. The nurse cannot replace the endotracheal tube and must be prepared to initiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The surgeon or anesthesiologist should be notified immediately.
