Answer to Question 1

C
Breast milk contains immunoglobulins that protect the newborn against infection.
The calorie count of formula and breast milk is about the same.
All of the essential amino acids are in both formula and breast milk. The concentrations may differ.
Calcium levels are higher in formula than breast milk. This higher level can cause an exces-sively high renal solute load if the formula is not diluted properly.

Answer to Question 2

B
