Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The newborn is exhibiting the Babinski reflex, one of the normal primitive reflexes that should disappear by 9 months of age. Documentation is all that is required.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
In stage 0undifferentiated (infancy)the infant is learning a fund of basic trust and the relational experience of mutuality with the one(s) providing primary love and care. In stage 1intuitive-projective (ages 2 to 6 or 7)beliefs and faith are unquestioning. It is a time of fantasy and magical thinking. In stage 2mythical-literal (ages 6 to 11)the child retells the spiritual stories and takes them literally and concretely. In stage 3synthetic-convention (typically begins around 12 or 13 years)the young person begins to personalize beliefs.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
