Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Sex determination occurs at the time of fertilization. Meiosis refers to cell division resulting in the formation of an ovum or sperm with half the number of chromosomes. The morula develops after a series of four cleavages following the formation of the zygote. Oogenesis refers to the development of a mature ovum, which has half the number of chromosomes.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A One cannot determine that a parent is exhibiting symptoms of a psychiatric
illness on the basis of a single situation.
B The scenario does not give any information to suggest child abuse.
C Although the father may have difficulty balancing his work schedule with
medical appointments for his child, a more likely explanation for his behavior
change is that he is grieving the loss of a normal child.
D After a child is diagnosed with a developmental delay, families typically
experience a cycle of grieving that is repeated when developmental milestones
are not met.
