Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: Profound intellectual disability is described as an intelligence quotient (IQ) below 20. Mild intellectual disability is described as an IQ between 50 and 70, moderate intellectual disability is an IQ between 35 and 50, and severe intellectual disability is an IQ between 20 and 35.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2,3
Rationale: A developmental milestone that can indicate learning disability is a kindergartener's being unable to button his shirt. Inability to phrase sentences is considered a delay if not done by 2-1/2 years, inability to sit still for a short story is considered a delay if the child is 3 to 5 years old, and being unable to cut with scissors indicates a delay if not done by kindergarten age. Reciting the phone number is not appropriate for a 2-year-old.
