Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Between the ages of 6 and 12 years, children grow an average of 5 cm (2 inches) per year.

Answer to Question 2

School-age children do not need to be fed as carefully, as promptly, or as frequently as before. Caloric needs are lower than they were in the preschool years and lower than they will be during the coming adolescent growth spurt.
