Answer #1

Answer: A. Babinski

Explanation:

A reflex is an automatic reaction of the human body when it is exposed to any type of stimulus. Babinski is one of those reflexes. But we can see this Babinski reflex only in children below 2 years. When we touch the feet of the baby with the hand/stimulus smoothly from downwards to upwards, One big toe of the feet will go upside and 4 small toes of the feet will go downside. This automatic reflex is called Babinski reflex. This reflex will tell us the functioning of the nervous system.

In the above-given case, the nurse was tickling chole's feet. Chole's toes reacting automatically. That's why the nurse was checking Chole's Babinski reflex.
