Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
GER is treated with small feedings thickened with cereal. The infant should not be made NPO or switched to cow's milk. Infants should only be placed on the back to sleep due to the risk of SIDS.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Age-related changes include presbyopia and farsightedness resulting from a loss of elasticity of the lens. Cataracts are due to opacity of the lens.
