Answer to Question 1

C
The child is in the protest stage. Depression is not a stage of separation.

Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. Brushing their teeth and flossing are unrelated to making children more prone to tonsillitis and pharyngitis.
B Correct. Children are prone to tonsillitis because they have a large amount of lymphoid tissue in the pharyngeal cavity, tend to have frequent upper respiratory tract infections, and are around other children who may have been infected.
C Incorrect. High sugar intake is unrelated to making children more prone to tonsillitis and pharyngitis.
D Incorrect. Infrequent or improper bathing is unrelated to making children more prone to tonsillitis and pharyngitis.
