Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Children learn by watching other children so a youngest child who has many examples to watch may excel in skills such as toilet training. The child did not become toilet trained early because of exceptional intelligence. The child is not developing too quickly. There is no way for the nurse to know if the child will wet the bed.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Although children cannot grow taller than their genetically programmed height potential, their adult height can be considerably less than their genetic potential if their environment hinders their growth. Environmental influences on height include socioeconomic status or occupations of parents, genetic material inherited, and availability and ingestion of nutritious foods. Participation in sports will not influence the child's ultimate height.
