Answer to Question 1

C
The instructor would know the student is correct if the student responded between 9 and 12 months of age. This delay allows time for the anatomic changes that normally occur in the palate contour (increase of the palate arch). Early surgery of a cleft palate seems to have a negative effect on facial growth, but the trend is toward closure during infancy because improved speech results.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback
A The umbilical cord can be compressed between the fetal body and the maternal
pelvis when the body has been born but the head remains within the pelvis.
B Breech presentation is not associated with a more rapid labor.
C There is no higher risk of infection with a breech birth.
D There is no higher risk for perineal trauma with a breech birth.
