Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
For the first time in her life, a woman during pregnancy can begin to empathize with the way her mother used to worry.

Thinking about diet, allergies, and the baby's sex are not developmental tasks for the pregnant patient.

A Autism does not have periods of remission and exacerbation.
B The onset of autism usually occurs before 3 years of age.
C Autistic children lack imitative skills.
D Medications are of limited use in children with autism.
