Answer to Question 1

A
When the Nitrazine paper turns yellow it is indicative of acidic discharge. Amniotic fluid is alkaline and turns the paper blue.

Answer to Question 2

D
Habilitation refers to developing skills and behaviors in people who did not have the skills originally. Children who are disabled from birth have no skills to relearn and are habilitated rather than rehabilitated.
