Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

Level 1 of Gilligan's theory says that relationships are often disappointing, and as a result, a woman might isolate herself to avoid getting hurt. Undifferentiated faith is part of Fowler's theory, not Gilligan's. Goodness is Level 2 of Gilligan's theory and says that acceptance by others is very important. Nonviolence is Gilligan's Level 3, and it says that nonviolence has to do with all judgments and decisions.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C, D

Physical characteristics, such as height, bone size, eye color and hair color, are inherited from our family of origin. Fetal development can be altered by maternal age (with risk greater in those under age 15 and over age 35), substance abuse, inadequate prenatal care, inadequate maternal nutrition, and maternal substance abuse. Abuse of alcohol and drugs is more prevalent in teenagers who have poor family relationships, low self-esteem, and poor social skills. Infants who are malnourished in utero develop fewer brain cells than infants who have had adequate prenatal nutrition. Environmental factors that might alter development include poverty and violence. The effect of each can occur independently, but they are more likely to be interrelated. Prenatal, individual, and caregiver factors influence development in many ways.
