Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Infants touch their genitals. This is normal behavior for a toddler. Punishment of genital fondling may lead to guilt and shame regarding sexual behavior later in life.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Some of the physiologic changes include an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, and the appearance of a pink to red flush to the skin. The first obvious sign of arousal in the man is an erection of the penis caused by increased pelvic congestion of blood. The scrotum noticeably elevates, thickens, and enlarges. The skin of the penis and scrotum turns a deep reddish-purple in response to congestion and arousal. Male nipples may also harden and become erect.
