Answer to Question 1

ANS: C

Answer to Question 2

Caffeine crosses the placenta, and the developing fetus has a limited ability to metabolize it. Research studies have not proved that caffeine (even in high doses) causes birth defects or preterm births in human infants (as it does in animals), but limited evidence suggests that heavy use increases the risk of hypertension, miscarriage, and stillbirth. (In these studies, heavy caffeine use is defined as the equivalent of 3 or more cups of coffee a day.) Depending on the quantities consumed and the mother's metabolism, caffeine may also interfere with fetal growth. Lower doses of caffeinesay, at levels equivalent to 3 cups of coffee or lessappear to be compatible with healthy pregnancies. All things considered, it may be most sensible to limit caffeine consumption to the equivalent of a cup or two of coffee a day.
