Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

Autistic infants are usually physically normal, learning to crawl and walk at normal ages. However, they seem to lack almost any attachments or social skills. As infants, they tend not to smile or explore things with their mouths. They do not seek cuddling or hugging and prefer to play by themselves, even when other children are present. Some autistic children even mutilate themselves in a variety of ways. As these children get older, differences become more obvious. Autistic children tend to practice echolalia and mutism. They tend to have a strong desire for exact sameness. Any change in their environment can cause an outburst. The most prominent feature of autistic children is how contently alone they seem.
