Answer

Question 20
Question
When an infant shifts their weight from upper to lower extremities (or lower to upper), and can move forward/back, up/down, this is known as:
Answer
-
bilateral weight shifting
-
contralateral weight shifting
-
ipsilateral weight shifting
-
unilateral weight shifting
Question 21
Question
[blank_start]Vertical Righting[blank_end] allows the child to orient their head in space so that their eyes and mouth are in the horizontal plane; the midline of body is now in alignment with COG

-
Vertical Righting
-
Rotational Righting

Question 27
Question
In vertical righting reactions in the prone position, there are two different expectations.
At [blank_start]4 months[blank_end], the head should extend to [blank_start]45[blank_end] degrees.
At [blank_start]6-7 months[blank_end] the trunk and pelvis should [blank_start]extend upwards[blank_end].

Question 28
Question
In vertical righting reactions in the [blank_start]supine[blank_end] position, pull to sit is elicited.
