Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
A balanced diet will take into consideration all of the essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals needed for healthy growth and development of the toddler. A scrambled egg for breakfast will provide the toddler with protein and help to regulate calcium and phosphorous for good bone growth. Cake and ice cream, fried foods, and candy are not nutritious foods for a toddler and indicate that instruction has not been effective.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The most common cause of postpartum hemorrhage is uterine atony, failure of the uterus to contract and retract after birth. The uterus must remain contracted after birth to control bleeding from the placental site. Labor augmentation is a risk factor for postpartum hemorrhage. Lacerations of the birth canal and uterine inversion may cause postpartum hemorrhage, but these are not the most common cause.
