Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The 4-year-old who ties her shoes and buttons her own buttons is meeting developmentally appropriate milestones. Anticipated milestones would include eating with a fork and spoon, drawing a picture of a person with six parts, and counting to at least 10.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Thyroid-stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, leuteinizing hormone, and growth hormone are all secreted, or their secretion is stimulated, by the anterior pituitary gland. The posterior pituitary gland secretes antidiuretic hormone and oxytocin. The pineal gland secretes melatonin. The thymus gland secretes thymin and thymosin.
