Answer to Question 1

C
The instructor would know the student is correct if the student responded between 9 and 12 months of age. This delay allows time for the anatomic changes that normally occur in the palate contour (increase of the palate arch). Early surgery of a cleft palate seems to have a negative effect on facial growth, but the trend is toward closure during infancy because improved speech results.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback
A The umbilical cord can be compressed between the fetal body and the maternal
pelvis when the body has been born but the head remains within the pelvis.
B Breech presentation is not associated with a more rapid labor.

D There is no higher risk for perineal trauma with a breech birth.

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.
