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.

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.
