Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Some antibiotics, such as streptomycin, gentamicin, and tobramycin, are ototoxic and can permanently damage the auditory nerve.
B Narcotic analgesics, sedatives, and antidepressant medications can alter the perception of stimuli.
C Chloramphenicol can irritate the optic nerve.
D Prolonged use of streptomycin does not result in a loss of taste.

Answer to Question 2

B A spine that is flexed and lacking anteroposterior curves is not a finding in a 20-month-old toddler.
C Widened hips and fat deposits on the thighs and buttocks are not findings in a 20-month-old toddler.
