Question

The _____________ is a measure of a newborn's motor behavior, response to stress, adaptive behavior an control over physiological state.

Answer 1

Apgar Scale

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1952 the Apgar score was introduced by Virginia Apgar. Apgar Score is a rapid test done at 1 and 5 minutes after birth on an infant.

The score of 1 minute indicates just how well the baby handled the birth process.

The 5-minute performance shows the wellbeing-care provider how well the baby does outside the womb of the mother.

The test is done 10 minutes after birth, in rare cases.
