A 6-month-old has been stung on the tongue after putting a bottle in his mouth that had a bee on the nipple. In comparison to the same injury in an adult, why would the EMT be more concerned with this child?

A) A child's airway has more blood vessels than an adult's, making bleeding more of a concern. B) Children tend to be highly allergic to bee stings while the same allergy in an adult is less common. C) The child's tongue is proportionally larger, increasing the chance of airway occlusion from minor swelling. D) When injured, a child's mouth produces more saliva, making airway occlusion a major concern.

A) "Have there been any problems with previous pregnancies?" B) "Are you receiving prenatal care from an obstetrician?" C) "Do you feel as though you are having contractions?" D) "Is there a reason as to why you were not wearing a seat belt?"
