Answer to Question 1

C
Response:
Avoiding sun exposure between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. is one method of reducing the risk for skin cancer. Sunscreens with an SPF of 15 or greater that are fragrance- and PABA-free should be used. Sunscreen should be applied at least 30 minutes before exposure and then reapplied at least every 2 hours while exposed. Artificial ultraviolet light, including tanning beds, should be avoided.

Answer to Question 2

B
Response:
Although school, family, and temperament are important influences on social interaction, peer relationships at this time provide the most important social interaction for school-age children.
