Answer to Question 1

D
Even though adolescents in this age group experience few mood swings, they tend to conceal their anger to a greater extent than do adolescents from other developmental periods. Wide mood swings are typical of the early adolescent period (11 to 14 years old), and the tendency to withdraw when upset and intense daydreaming refer to middle adolescence (14 to 17 years old).

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Infants (birth to 12 months) may respond to schedule disruptions with irritability and/or apathy and weight loss. Toddlers (1 to 3 years) may become sullen, tearful, throw temper tantrums, or develop sleep problems. Preschoolers (3 to 6 years) may regress in areas such as toilet training, sleep, separation fears, physical complaints, or thumb sucking and may assume blame for parent's departure. School age children (6 to 12 years) are more aware of potential dangers to parent. May exhibit irritable behavior, aggression, or whininess. May become more regressed and fearful about parent's safety.
Adolescents (13 to 18 years) may be rebellious, irritable, or more challenging of authority. Parents need to be alert to high-risk behaviors, such as problems with the law, sexual acting out, and drug or alcohol abuse.
