Answer to Question 1

Answer:2
Rationale:Starting iron-fortified infant cereal at 4 to 6 months of age is recommended for prevention of iron deficiency in children.Infants who are not breast-fed should get iron-fortified formula.Cow's milk should not be introduced until 12 months of age. Vitamin C should be started at 6 to 9 months of age and continued,because foods rich in vitamin C improve iron absorption.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: The patient who forgot to start a new pill pack on time might not have had intercourse.
Rationale 2: Intercourse during menses does not lead to pregnancy.
Rationale 3: Emergency contraception is taken to prevent pregnancy when unprotected intercourse occurs during the midcycle within the past 72 hours.
Rationale 4: An IUD in place prevents conception, so emergency contraception is not indicated.
