Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Carefully washing the hands and nipples with plain warm water is the single most important way to prevent infection in infants and maternal breasts.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Fluoride is not present in breast milk unless the mother drinks fluoridated water. Fluoride is necessary for the development of tooth enamel.
