Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Holding the baby en face and speaking softly obtains the most response from the baby, including eye contact, smiling, and vocalization.
Rationale 2: Although each infant is unique, there are certain predictable norms to observe for when assessing for neurological normalcy or impairment.
Rationale 3: Some infants become overstimulated when excessive noise is present, but more habituate to the sound and sleep.
Rationale 4: Cuddling is a social behavior that correlates with personality, but it has not been linked to any prenatal activities.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Ova and sperm are gametes; a fertilized ovum is a zygote.
Rationale 2: Sperm are gametes (as are ova); a zygote is a fertilized ovum.
Rationale 3: Ova are fertile for about 1224 hours after being released from the graafian follicle.
Rationale 4: Sperm survive 4872 hours in the female reproductive tract, but are healthy and highly fertile for 24 hours.
