Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
As the uterus grows, it presses on the urinary bladder, causing the increased frequency of urination during the first trimester. This complaint lessens during the second trimester only to reappear in the third trimester as the fetus begins to descend into the pelvis, causing pressure on the bladder.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D
Feedback
Correct Self-stimulation is common and generally involves repetition of a sensory
stimulus. Autistic children generally show a fixed, unchanging response to
a particular stimulus. Autistic children generally play alone or involve
others only as mere objects.
Incorrect Autistic children lack imitative skills. These children lack social ability
and make poor eye contact.
