Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A Neither breastfed nor formula-fed infants need to be given water, not even in very hot climates.
B During the first 3 months, formula-fed infants consume more energy than breastfed infants and therefore tend to grow more rapidly.
C Human milk contains only small amounts of vitamin D.
D Vitamin K shots are required for all infants because the bacteria that produce it are absent from the baby's stomach at birth.
