Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Kangaroo care is skin-to-skin contact between parent and infant that fosters attachment and helps stabilize and soothe a preterm infant.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Growth interference that begins later in pregnancy and affects the size of cells, not the total number of cells is asymmetric intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). It is most often associated with compromise of uteroplacental blood flow. Causes of asymmetric IUGR include gestational hypertension, smoking (causing vasoconstriction), maternal drug use (such as cocaine), uncontrolled maternal diabetes, and placental infarcts.
