Answer to Question 1

B
If the newborn infant is hypoxemic and has an inadequate inspiratory effort, there is a delay in the clearance of pulmonary fluid. This leads to TTN.

Answer to Question 2

C
Paradoxical chest movement means that the flail area moves in the opposite direction from which it normally would. So, with inspiration, the flail area moves inward, and with exhalation, the flail area moves outward. The tracheal position is not affected by broken ribs.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
