Answer to Question 1

C
Response:
Bluish coloration of the cervix is termed Chadwick's sign. Hegar's sign refers to the softening of the lower uterine segment or isthmus. Goodell's sign refers to the softening of the cervix. Ortolani's sign is a maneuver done to identify developmental dysplasia of the hip in infants.

Answer to Question 2

A
Response:
The young preschooler may have a less discriminating sense of taste than the older child, putting him or her at increased risk for accidental ingestion. A less discriminating sense of touch and developing visual acuity would not increase the risk. Hearing is intact at birth and does not increase the child's risk for accidental ingestion.
