Answer to Question 1

C
Elevated AFP during the first trimester is indicative of a neural tube anomaly, so the first action to be taken when an elevated AFP occurs is to check the gestational age of the fetus.

Answer to Question 2

B, C, D
Feedback
Correct The characteristics of preoperational thinking that occur for the toddler
include egocentrism (views everything in relation to self), animism
(believes that inert objects are alive), and magical thought (believes that
thinking something causes that event).
Incorrect Concrete thinking is seen in school-age children, and ability to reason is
seen with adolescents.
