Answer to Question 1

C
A high fever is associated with epiglottitis rather than LTB. A patient with LTB may show the other listed findings.

Answer to Question 2

A
Epiglottitis is an inflammation of the epiglottis caused by an infection. In severe cases, it can close off the upper airway. However, it is not associated with apnea of prematurity. All of the other listed options can lead to apnea of prematurity.
