Answer to Question 1

C
Muscular development proceeds from head to foot (cephalocaudal).

Answer to Question 2

D
A thready pulse is difficult to feel and is not palpable when only slight pressure is applied. A weak pulse is somewhat stronger than a thready pulse but not palpable when light pressure is applied. A normal pulse is easily felt but not palpable when moderate pressure is applied. A bounding pulse feels full and springlike even under moderate pressure.
