Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale:
1. Mild intellectual disability is described as an IQ between 50 and 70.
2. Profound intellectual disability is described as an intelligence quotient (IQ) below 20.
3. Moderate intellectual disability is an IQ between 35 and 50.
4. Severe intellectual disability is described as an IQ between 20 and 35.

Answer to Question 2

D

Feedback
A The cardiovascular system changes markedly after birth as a result of fetal respiration, which reduces pulmonary vascular resistance to the pulmonary blood flow and initiates a chain of cardiac changes that support the cardiovascular system.
B The infant relies on passive immunity received from the mother for the first 3 months of life.
C After the establishment of respirations, heat regulation is critical to newborn survival.
D The most critical adjustment of a newborn at birth is the establishment of respirations.
