Answer to Question 1

A, B, D, E
The white patches of thrush can occur on the tongue, inner lips, gums, and oral mucosa.

Answer to Question 2

D
Children should not be given cow's milk until they are 12 months of age. Breast milk and formula provide the extra nutrition needed by infants. Infants who drink cow's milk are prone to iron-deficiency anemia, intolerance of whole milk protein, difficult metabolism for the gastrointestinal tract, and stress on the renal system.
