Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

Negativism (characteristically expressed by saying no) and outbursts of temper result from the toddler's efforts at control over the environment.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B

Toddlers, aged 1 to 3, can pick up small objects with their fingers. The other responses are characteristic of other stages of physiologic development: Infants attempt to feed themselves; preschoolers can throw and catch balls; school-aged children understand the feelings of others (cognitive, not physiologic, development).
