Answer to Question 1

4. Helping them develop skills needed in the adult world, like allowance budgeting

Rationale:
School-age children are motivated by activities that provide a sense of worth. They concentrate on mastering skills that will help them function in the adult world. Gross motor skills should be the focus of the preschool child, as should make-believe and pretend opportunities. Understanding diversity, role preference, and performance is the task of the adolescent.

Answer to Question 2

3. Pulling the child to a sitting position and propping the child in a sitting position

Rationale:
The infant at 6 months should have head control and is working on sitting without support. Pulling the child to a sitting position allows the neck muscles to support the head. Propping the child in a sitting position helps to develop self-righting behaviors. It is too early to worry about standing. Talking to the child promotes language development, not gross motor development. Handling a rattle is fine-motor behavior, not gross motor behavior.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

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.
