Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
At 8 weeks, the major level of development is establishing a preferred sleeping position and crying to signal needs. At 6 weeks, the major level of development is smiling, babbling, following lights, and reacting to sounds. At 3 months of age, the major level of development is laughing, squealing, looking at objects for several seconds, and reaching for and grasping objects. At 2 to 3 months of age, the major level of development is to develop a social smile and respond to pleasurable interactions, such as looking at human faces.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The glomerulus filters water, wastes (urea), glucose, and salts out of the blood. The proximal convoluted tubule actively transports glucose, amino acids, and salts across membranes and returns them to the blood. Loop of Henle concentrates salts by reabsorbing water. The distal convoluted tubule reabsorbs sodium, water, and the remainder of glucose.
