Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, F
Feedback:
The infant exhibits a first real smile at age 2 months. By about 3 months of age the infant will start an interaction with a caregiver by smiling widely and possibly gurgling. The 3- to 4-month-old will also mimic the parent's facial movements, such as widening the eyes and sticking out the tongue. Separation anxiety may also start in the last few months of infancy. Around the age of 8 months the infant may develop stranger anxiety. At 6 to 8 months of age the infant may enjoy socially interactive games such as patty-cake and peek-a-boo.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
If a child has a sensitive or painful body part, palpate that area last. Otherwise, the child may be unwilling to allow other parts to be touched in fear of additional pain. The painful regions should not be assessed first, after measuring vital signs, or before the abdominal assessment.
