Questions and Answers

1.

Babies are born without which body part?
- A.
  
  Tail Bone
- B.
  
  Knee Caps
- C.
  
  Elbows
Correct Answer
B. Knee Caps

Explanation
Babies are born without knee caps. This is because knee caps, also known as patellae, are not fully formed at birth. They develop gradually over time as the baby grows and starts to walk. The absence of knee caps allows for more flexibility in the baby's legs, making it easier for them to crawl and move around. As the baby grows older, the knee caps ossify and become fully formed, providing stability and support to the knees.

How long are elephants pregnant?
- A.
  
  12 months
- B.
  
  2 years
- C.
  
  4 years
Correct Answer
B. 2 years

Explanation
Elephants have a gestation period of approximately 22 months, which is close to 2 years. This is the longest gestation period among all land mammals. During this time, the female elephant carries the developing fetus in her womb before giving birth. The extended pregnancy is necessary for the proper development of the elephant calf, which is born relatively large and fully capable of walking and feeding shortly after birth.

What is the most common food craving of a pregnant woman?
- A.
  
  Potato chips
- B.
  
  Popsicles
- C.
  
  Chocolate
Correct Answer
C. Chocolate

Explanation
During pregnancy, many women experience cravings for certain foods. Among these cravings, chocolate is often reported as the most common one. This could be due to the fact that chocolate contains compounds that can trigger the release of feel-good hormones in the brain, such as serotonin and endorphins. Additionally, chocolate is known for its rich and indulgent taste, which may satisfy cravings for sweetness and comfort. Therefore, it is not surprising that chocolate is the most common food craving of a pregnant woman.

In the womb, what is the name of the fine hair that covers baby?
- A.
  
  Lanugo
- B.
  
  Vernix
- C.
  
  Colostrum
Correct Answer
A. Lanugo

Explanation
Lanugo is the fine hair that covers a baby in the womb. It is a protective covering that helps regulate the baby's body temperature. Lanugo usually sheds before birth, but in some cases, it may still be present on a premature baby. Vernix, on the other hand, is a waxy substance that covers the baby's skin to protect it from amniotic fluid. Colostrum is the first milk produced by the mother after giving birth, which is rich in nutrients and antibodies.

Pre-eclampsia symptoms include swelling and high...
- A.
  
  Water retention levels
- B.
  
  Blood pressure
- C.
  
  Temper
Correct Answer
B. Blood pressure

Explanation
Pre-eclampsia is a condition that affects pregnant women and is characterized by high blood pressure. This condition can lead to complications for both the mother and the baby if left untreated. Swelling, also known as edema, is a common symptom of pre-eclampsia, but it is not the defining characteristic. Similarly, temper or mood changes can occur in some cases, but they are not the primary symptoms. Therefore, the correct answer is blood pressure, as it is a key indicator of pre-eclampsia.

What is the most uncommon day of the week to have a baby?
- A.
  
  Saturday
- B.
  
  Sunday
- C.
  
  Wednesday
Correct Answer
B. Sunday

Explanation
Sunday is considered the most uncommon day of the week to have a baby because it is typically associated with religious observances and family time. Many people prefer not to schedule inductions or elective C-sections on Sundays, which could contribute to fewer births on that day. Additionally, some hospitals may have reduced staffing or limited services on Sundays, making it less convenient for expectant mothers to give birth on that day. Overall, these factors make Sunday a less common day for babies to be born compared to other days of the week.
