Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A It is desirable to wear cotton rather than nylon underwear. Nylon tends to hold in
moisture and promote bacterial growth, whereas cotton absorbs moisture.
B Bubble baths should be avoided because they tend to cause urethral irritation,
which leads to UTI.
C Children should be encouraged to urinate at least four times a day.
D An adequate fluid intake prevents the buildup of bacteria in the bladder.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A This is within the normal range for visual acuity at 4 years of age. The
4-year-old's acuity is usually 20/30 to 20/40 . There is no need for evaluation by
an ophthalmologist at this time.
B This is the correct response.
C The child's visual acuity is within normal range for his age. Color vision is
evaluated by different methods than visual acuity.
D This is within the normal range for visual acuity at 4 years of age. The
4-year-old's acuity is usually 20/30 to 20/40 . There is no need for further
evaluation at this time.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
