Answer to Question 1

D
Injury is a leading cause of death in children over age 1, which is closely related to normal growth and development because of the child's increased oral activity and growing ability to explore the environment.

Answer to Question 2

A
One possible cause of abdominal cramping is a rapid increase in rate or volume. Lowering the rate of delivery may increase tolerance. Another possible cause of abdominal cramping is use of cold formula. The nurse should warm the formula to room temperature. The nurse should maintain the head of the bed at least 30 degrees. High-fat formulas are also a cause of abdominal cramping.
