Question

  1. the most severe adverse pregnancy outcomes include:

miscarriages, stillbirth, maternal death
high birth weight infant, high iron levels, low blood pressure
swollen ankles, constipation, nausea
hemorrhoids, birth defects, premature delivery

  1. two micronutrients of concern for young children are:

calcium and vitamin d
iron and zinc
potassium and sodium
magnesium and selenium

Explanation:

Question 40
Brief Explanations

To determine the most severe adverse pregnancy outcomes, we analyze each option:

  • Option 1: Miscarriages (loss of pregnancy), stillbirth (fetal death before birth), and maternal death are extremely severe outcomes as they involve loss of life (fetal or maternal) or major pregnancy failure.
  • Option 2: High birth weight can be a concern but is not as severe as the first option; high iron levels and low blood pressure in pregnancy are not typically severe adverse outcomes in the same category.
  • Option 3: Swollen ankles, constipation, and nausea are common, mild discomforts of pregnancy, not severe outcomes.
  • Option 4: Hemorrhoids are a common, non - life - threatening issue; birth defects and premature delivery are serious but not as severe as the combination of miscarriage, stillbirth, and maternal death.
Brief Explanations

For young children, we consider micronutrient concerns:

  • Option 1: Calcium and vitamin D are important but not the most common micronutrients of concern for young children in terms of deficiency - related issues.
  • Option 2: Iron and zinc are micronutrients that are often of concern for young children. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia and cognitive development issues, and zinc deficiency can affect growth, immune function, and development.
  • Option 3: Potassium and sodium are macronutrients (electrolytes) and not typically considered micronutrients of concern in the same way as iron and zinc for young children.
  • Option 4: Magnesium and selenium are not the primary micronutrients of concern for young children compared to iron and zinc.

Answer:

Miscarriages, stillbirth, maternal death
