Answer to Question 1

Answer: C, D, E

A 5-year-old should be able to button his shirt. A 6-year-old should be able to sit still for a short story; this is a task that children between 3 and 5 years are typically able to do. A child who cannot cut with scissors by kindergarten age is considered developmentally delayed, but a 2-year-old is not expected to be able to do this. A 2-year-old is not expected to be able to recite a phone number. A 3-year-old is usually able to speak in sentences.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Temperament is the way individuals respond to their external and internal environment, and it sets the stage for the interactive dynamics of growth and development. Physical characteristics include eye color and potential height but do not affect how children interact, for the most part. Environmental factors include family, religion, climate, culture, school, community, and nutrition; they do not play as significant a role in how the child responds to peers as temperament does. Culture is one of the environmental factors.
