Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Cry and an increased heart rate are manifestations of neonatal pain. Typically,
infants will close their eyes tightly when in pain, not open them wide.
B Infants may cry in response to pain. Additionally, they may display a rigid
posture with the mouth open.
C A high-pitched, shrill cry is associated with genetic/neurologic anomalies. The
infant may cry, withdraw limbs, and become tachycardic with pain.
D These manifestations are indicative of pain in the neonate.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Jogging jars the hip, knee, and ankle joints and can cause joint damage.
B Tennis also jars the joints and can cause joint damage.
C Gymnastics does not protect the joints from injury.
D The warmth of the water, coupled with mild resistance, makes swimming the
perfect medium for strengthening and range-of-motion exercises while
protecting the joints.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
