Answer to Question 1

D
This behaviour describes the tonic neck reflex.
The grasping reflex is the grasping reaction of the fingers and toes when stimulated.
The rooting reflex is the turning of the infant's mouth toward the stimulus when the infant's cheek is stroked.
The startle reflex, also known as the Moro reflex or embrace reflex, is seen in infants in response to startling stimuli.
