Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Emotional development in the toddler years is focused on separation and individuation. The focus in infancy is on love and belonging, and the need for peer approval occurs in the adolescent. Safety and security are concerns in all levels of development, but not the primary focus.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Hearing should be at the adult level, as infants are ordinarily born with hearing intact. Therefore, the toddler should hear commands whispered in his ear. Toddlers examine new items by feeling them, looking at them, shaking them to hear what sound they make, smelling them, and placing them in their mouths. Toddler vision continues to progress and should be 20/50 to 20/40 in both eyes. Though taste discrimination is not completely developed, toddlers may exhibit preferences for certain flavors of foods.
