The child that has a difficult temperament is withdrawing, low in adaptability, intense, and negative in mood. The child that has an easy temperament is rhythmic.

Answer to Question 2

D

Mastitis is characterized by a tender, hot, red, painful area on the affected breast. An inverted nipple is not associated with mastitis. With mastitis, the breast is distended with milk, the area is inflamed (not ecchymotic), and there is breast tenderness.
