Answer to Question 1

D
Using a harsh voice when saying NO will deter a 9-month-old from getting into harm's way. Corporal punishment is not understood by younger children and may damage the development of trust.

Answer to Question 2

A
Fractures that disturb the epiphyseal plate can affect bone growth.
