Baby Chloe startles when she hears a loud sound. She arches her back, throws back her head, and flings out her arms. Which reflex is she demonstrating? A. sucking B. Moro C. rooting D. grasping

D. grasping because she is reaching out

The correct answer is letter B

Explanation: Moro's reflex is a normal reflex in every newborn baby, which is characterized by abrupt abduction and extension of the upper limbs, usually associated with similar movement of the lower limbs and loud crying. It usually occurs when the child brushes his back on a surface, or when there are movements of the surface itself.
