Answer to Question 1

C
Common complications in infants of mothers who are diabetic include patent ductus arteriosus, ventricular septal defect, transposition of the great vessels, small left colon syndrome, and sacral agenesis.

Answer to Question 2

C
Viral infection is the most common cause of hepatitis, and the five known viruses produce similar signs and symptoms but vary in prognosis. Fatigue, anorexia, abdominal pain, generalized muscle aches, fever, jaundice, pruritus, dark amber urine, and clay-colored stools are common manifestations. Medical treatment focuses on resting the liver and detecting complications early. Antiemetics and vitamins C, B complex, and K are often prescribed, in addition to dietary modifications such as fat or protein restriction.
