Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,D,E

Choice A rationale
Creating an organization chart for tasks can help a child with ADHD manage their responsibilities and stay on track.
Choice D rationale
Designating an established area for study can provide structure and minimize distractions, helping a child with ADHD focus on their work.
Choice E rationale
Maintaining a consistent home schedule can provide predictability and structure, which can be beneficial for a child with ADHD5.
Choice B rationale
Nonstimulant medications can be beneficial in the treatment of ADHD. They are often used when stimulant medications are not effective or cause undesirable side effects.
Choice C rationale
While medication can be an important part of treatment for some children with ADHD, it is not always the best or only approach. Behavioral therapy and lifestyle changes are also important components of treatment.
Choice F rationale
Being diagnosed with ADHD does not automatically qualify a child for a specialized education plan. While some children with ADHD may benefit from individualized education programs (IEPs) or 504 plans, these are determined on a case-by-case basis.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale
Recognizing most letters and numbers is a skill that typically develops later in childhood, not at 3 years old.
Choice B rationale
Using 1-word sentences is a skill that is typically mastered by 2 years old. A 3-year-old child is usually able to speak in longer sentences.
Choice C rationale
Speaking in simple sentences with four or more words is a normal developmental milestone for a 3-year-old child.
Choice D rationale
Using gestures with 1 to 2-word sentences is a skill that is typically mastered by 2 years old. A 3-year-old child is usually able to speak in longer sentences.

A. Fecal-fat test. B. Sweat-chloride test. C. Pulmonary-function test. D. Potassium chloride test.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale
A fecal-fat test is used to measure the body’s ability to break down and absorb fat. It is not used to screen for cystic fibrosis.
Choice B rationale
The sweat-chloride test is the standard diagnostic test for cystic fibrosis. This test measures the amount of chloride, a component of salt, in the sweat. People with cystic fibrosis have two to five times the normal amount of chloride in their sweat.
Choice C rationale
A pulmonary-function test measures how well the lungs are working and can be used to monitor the lung function in people already diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. However, it is not a standard screening test for cystic fibrosis.
Choice D rationale
A potassium chloride test is not used to screen for cystic fibrosis. Potassium chloride is a type of medication used to treat or prevent low amounts of potassium in the blood.
