Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Benefits of breast-feeding include reduced food allergies and intolerances; fewer infant infec-tions; easier digestion; convenient; always correct temperature, available, and fresh; economical, because it is less expensive than formula; and increased time for mother and infant interaction, although it does not contribute to family-infant bonding.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1, 2, 4, 6
Proteins provide a source of energy (4 kcal/g), and they are essential for synthesis (building) of body tissue in growth, maintenance, and repair. Collagen, hormones, enzymes, immune cells, DNA, and RNA are all made of protein. In addition, blood clotting, fluid regulation, and ac-id-base balance require proteins. These proteins transport nutrients and many drugs in the blood. There is not a direct connection between the other options and protein.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
