Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, D
Postcircumcision care includes washing with warm water, avoiding alcohol wipes, leaving the yellow crust in place, and diapering loosely.

ANS: A, C
Newborns have very little subcutaneous fat, which offers little insulation against cold. Newborns have ineffective sweat glands and cannot cool themselves through evaporation.
