Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A symptom of cystic fibrosis is a meconium ileus soon after birth. A murmur can be a sign of a congenital heart disease. Hypoglycemia can be a sign of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. Muscle weakness can be a sign of myotonic dystrophy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A newborn diagnosed with congenital adrenal hyperplasia can have ambiguous genitalia or virilization of female external genitalia caused by elevated androgen levels. Prenatal growth retardation is present with Bloom syndrome. An abnormally large tongue is seen with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. Legs and arms significantly shorter than torso are seen with achondroplasia.
