Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Deep somatic pain typically involves the muscles, tendons, joints, fasciae, and bones. It can be localized or diffuse and is usually described as dull, aching, or cramping with tenderness. It can also be due to overuse injuries commonly experienced by athletes. Cutaneous pain usually involves the skin and is described as sharp or burning. Neuropathic pain is due to a malfunctioning of the peripheral nervous system and is described as burning or tingling. Visceral pain is pain that develops within organs.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Failure to thrive is a syndrome in which an infant falls below the 5th percentile for weight and height on a standard growth chart or is falling in percentiles on a growth chart. One category of this syndrome occurs because of a disturbance in the parentchild relationship, resulting in maternal role insufficiency or a nonorganic cause. Failure to thrive is not caused by a reaction to severe stress, limited calcium metabolism, or interference with gastrointestinal absorption.
