ORRECT ANSWER: C br b r
A 2-month-
br
old infant is able to hold the head erect only briefly and continues to have some head lag. It is not u
br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br
ntil 4 months of age that the infant can keep his or her head in a straight line when pulled to a sitti
br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br
ng position.

2. Approximately what should a newborn weigh at 1 year of age if the newborns birth weight w br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br
as 7 pounds 6 ounces?

b. 22 1/8 pounds br br
c. 29 1/2 pounds br br
d. Unable to estimate weight at 1 year CORRECT ANSWER: B
br br br br br br br br b r
An infant triples the birth weight by 1 year of age. An infant doubles the birth weight by 6
br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br br
months of age. An infant quadruples the birth weight by 2 years of age. Weight at 6 months, 1 year,

and 2 years of age can be estimated from the birth weight.
