Answer to Question 1

B
In early adolescence, the focus is on the present. Understanding complex problems occurs later in adolescence. The physiological and psychosocial changes beginning in early adolescence do not lend to logical thinking.

Answer to Question 2

B
Circumoral cyanosis indicates decreased oxygenation and should be reported to the physician immediately. Mongolian spots are a normal finding, and these spots usually disappear as the infant grows. Jaundice after 48 hours indicates physiologic jaundice. Conjunctival hemorrhage can occur as a result of the pressure against the head during labor and delivery.
