Answer to Question 1

C
Positioning of the car seat is based on body weight and age. At 9 kg (20 lb), the infant or child 12 months or older may be placed in a forward-facing child seat.

Answer to Question 2

B
Ptosis, or drooping of the eyelid, may be seen in a patient who experienced Bell's palsy or a stroke. Exophthalmos is associated with hyperthyroidism. Mydriasis may be seen with glaucoma. Macular degeneration has no outward signs.
