Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Once the mature woman decides to conceive, a delay in becoming pregnant may occur because of the normal aging of the ovaries. Prepregnancy medical care is available and encouraged. The older adult participates in fewer risk behaviors than the younger adult. The problem is the age of the ovaries, not the past use of contraceptives.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, D
Formula-fed infants generally pass at least one stool each day. The infant should have at least six wet diapers by the fourth day of life. Stools that are dry, hard, and marble-like indicate constipation. Watery stools indicate diarrhea.
