Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
If the hip joint seems to lock short of this distance of 180 degrees, hip subluxation is suggested. Inward rotation of the right foot, crying when straightening the leg, or drawing the legs underneath when prone does not indicate hip subluxation.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Although hCG, hPL, and progesterone decline rapidly after birth, decreased estrogen levels are associated with breast engorgement and with the diuresis of excess extracellular fluid accumulated during pregnancy.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
