Answer to Question 1

D
An expressive language disorder is a disorder of communication that is of concern if the problem persists or interferes with the child's daily activities or ability to learn and function at the expected academic level. A reading disorder most likely would be difficult to determine at this age; a phonological disorder refers to an inability to use sounds and speech as expected at a given age; and a stuttering disorder refers to frequent repetition of sounds or portions of words.

Answer to Question 2

A
Children with autism do not develop the ability to respond to and communicate their needs, and they remain dependent on others, sometimes throughout their lives. These children do not respond well to reality. The other options do not accurately match the description in the situation.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
