Answer to Question 1

D
Viral disease exposure would be the greatest occupational risk. Varicella is present in any area that the client has exposure to multiple preschool children. Lifting and inadequate nutrition are not teratogens. Radiation from the sun would not be considered an environmental teratogen.

Answer to Question 2

caput succedaneum
