Explanation

A nurse would recommend having crackers handy at the bedside and eating a few before getting out of bed to alleviate nausea in the early morning for a pregnant woman 1.

Choice B is incorrect because repeating an action over and over is not necessarily indicative of autism spectrum disorder.
Choice D is incorrect because flipping a light switch off and on until asked to stop and join other children in playing is not necessarily indicative of autism spectrum disorder.
