Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The pattern of inheritance is generally autosomal recessive.

Answer to Question 2

allergens

Eczema is actually a symptom rather than a disorder. It indicates that the infant is oversensitive to certain substances called allergens, which enter the body via the digestive tract (food), by inhalation (dust, pollen), by direct contact (wool, soap, strong sunlight), or by injections (insect bites, vaccines).
