Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
An infant who has not been toilet trained cannot be expected to urinate on command so a collecting device must be attached to the genitalia to collect their next voiding. Most infants void shortly after a feeding, so if the collector is applied just before a regular feeding, voiding will probably result soon afterward. Remove the collector as soon as the infant voids and transfer the specimen to a specimen cup by cutting a bottom corner of the bag. Waiting an hour after a feeding might not produce the needed urine for the specimen. It would be difficult to obtain a clean-catch specimen from a baby. It is inappropriate to send a saturated diaper to the laboratory for a urine specimen.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Toddlers typically play alongside another child (parallel play) rather than cooperatively. Infants engage in solitary play.
