Answer to Question 1

B
The expected pulse range for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute. This client's pulse is elevated at 110 beats per minute.
This client's temperature is within the normal range of 36C to 38C for an adult.
This client's respiratory rate is within the normal range of 12 to 20 breaths per minute for an adult.
This client's blood pressure reading is within the normal range of less than or equal to 120/80 mm Hg for an adult.

Answer to Question 2

B
Between 2 and 3 months of age, infants begin to smile responsively rather than reflexively.
By age 1 year, infants have two- or three-word vocabularies, such as Da-da.
By 8 months of age, most infants can differentiate a stranger from a familiar person.
By 9 months of age, infants play simple social games such as patty-cake and peek-a-boo.
