Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Influenza vaccination would be administered annually. The diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus (DTaP) vaccination should be provided before the child starts school. Hepatitis B and tetanus booster are not identified as vaccinations appropriate for this age group.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
A low-birth-weight newborn weighs less than 5.5 lb (2,500 g) but more than 3 lb 5 oz. A very-low-birth-weight newborn would weigh less than 3 lb 5 oz but more than 2 lb 3 oz (1,000 g). An extremely-low-birth-weight newborn weighs less than 2 lb 3 oz (1,000g). A small-for-gestational-age newborn typically weighs less than 5 lb 8 oz (2,500 g) at term.
