Answer to Question 1

Simian crease
The deep straight line across the palm of a child with Down syndrome is called the simian crease.

Answer to Question 2

B
A disabled teen is still focused on acceptance. This teen has the additional burden of also dealing with a chronic health condition, which makes acceptance very difficult. The nurse should help the teen explore ways that he or she can keep up with his or her class. Peers should be encouraged to visit. The teen needs a flexible routine to allow for as much normality as possible.
