Answer to Question 1

2
Explanation: 2. Swaddling, placing a hand on the abdomen, or holding the arms to prevent a startle reflex are other ways to soothe the newborn. The settled newborn is then able to attend to and interact with the environment.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3,4
Rationale 1: Pregnant women and toddlers should not eat the flesh of large, predator fish that can have a large buildup of mercury in their fat, such as tilefish (white or golden snapper).
Rationale 2: Pregnant women and toddlers should not eat the flesh of large, predator fish that can have a large buildup of mercury in their fat, such as swordfish.
Rationale 3: Because tuna are also large predator fish, pregnant women should not eat more than 6 ounces of white albacore tuna per week or more than 12 ounces per week of light tuna.
Rationale 4: Farmed salmon contains much higher PCB levels than wild salmon does.
Rationale 5: Tilapia is not a predator fish, and is safe to eat.
