Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Incorrect: Children who have MDD are not less depressed compared with adults with MDD and do not more closely resemble an adult with dysthymic disorder.
B Incorrect: The clinical picture of a child with MDD may be similar to that of an adult, but children may not spontaneously express feelings of sadness and worthlessness.
C Incorrect: This is not a true statement.
D Correct: Compared to adults, depressed children are more irritable, express more anxiety (such as school or social phobia), and verbalize more about somatic complaints like headaches and stomachaches.

Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. Influenza, meningitis, and varicella are not transmitted through vertical transmission.
B Correct. Vertical transmission can occur through the placenta while the infant is in utero, during delivery, or through breast milk following delivery. Among the infections transmitted in this way are rubella, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
C Incorrect. Staphylococci, streptococci, and Escherichia coli are not transmitted through vertical transmission.
D Incorrect. Hepatitis B and C are transmissible by way of vertical transmission, but not Rickettsia rickettsii.
