Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Symptoms of Epstein-Barr virus, also known as mononucleosis, can last for several weeks to months, not just 7-10 days.
B. Epstein-Barr virus is spread through saliva, so avoiding sharing drinks or utensils helps prevent transmission.
C. Bed rest is recommended, but it is not the only measure needed; monitoring and managing symptoms is also important.
D. Epstein-Barr virus is a viral infection, and antibiotics are not effective in treating viral illnesses.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Passing tar-like stools is normal for newborns within the first few days of life and does not indicate Hirschsprung disease.
B. Limited stooling and poor weight gain may suggest feeding issues but are not as indicative of Hirschsprung disease as the absence of stool.
C. The absence of stool (failure to pass meconium within 24-48 hours) is a classic sign of Hirschsprung disease, a condition where the absence of ganglion cells in the intestines leads to a blockage.
D. Passing hard, pellet-like stools may indicate constipation but is not specific to Hirschsprung disease, especially in a newborn.
