Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Alignment is evaluated by observing eye motion, performing the cover/uncover test, and assessing the light reflex.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The pupillary reflex is elicited by holding the light source in front of the patient so that it is directed toward one eye. At this point, observe both pupils, noting the direct response of the eye receiving the direct light and the consensual response in the opposite eye.
