Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
After a few days, signs of respiratory distress develop, particularly dyspnea and tachypnea. Pro-gressive inflammation and narrowing of the airways cause inspiratory and expiratory wheezing and increase airway resistance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Passive immunization is now recommended for infants younger than 2 years of age who are re-quiring medical therapy for chronic lung disease, infants born less than 32 weeks' gestational age, and infants with congenital heart disease who have cardiovascular compromise.
