Answer to Question 1

Ans:
B

Feedback:

While premature birth is associated with numerous potential health problems, including variations in vital signs, impaired motor function, and neurological deficits, the most common complications of prematurity involve respiratory function.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
C

Feedback:

While consisting of several stages, cell division can be broadly divided into the two phases of mitosis and synthesis. Some cells lack a G1 stage, not a G0 phase, and mitosis is a fluid and continuous process over 1 to 1  hours. Nondividing cells are said to be in the G0 phase.
