Answer to Question 1

3
Feedback
1. The neonate will not have a brain, thus this is not a normal outcome.
2. The child lacks brain tissue, and hydrocephaly is not common.
3. Death is inevitable for a neonate with anencephaly because of the lack of brain structure.
4. A child with anencephaly has a very short life span, and evaluation for mental handicap is not needed.

Bottle-fed babies are not usually fed until they are about 6 hours old.
