Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Place the newborn on a flat surface and clap hands loudly:
A sudden loud noise or movement causes the newborn to extend and abduct arms, then adduct them – the Moro (startle) reflex.

B. Stroke the newborn's cheek toward their mouth:
This tests the rooting reflex, not the Moro reflex.

C. Stroke upward on the lateral aspect of the newborn's foot:
This elicits the Babinski reflex, not Moro.

D. Place the newborn on their abdomen and observe the movement of their extremities:
This would assess gross motor tone or posture, not the Moro reflex.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Leg cramps:
This is a common discomfort of pregnancy due to changes in circulation and calcium/phosphate levels.
