The difference between acquired and congenital disabilities is:

at birth
-One is associated with intellectual disability, the other is not
-One is hereditary, the other is not
-There is no difference, the terms can be used interchangeably Answer - One is
the result of a disease or accident well after birth, the other is present at birth
The term 'apraxia' is a general term for a neurological condition in which:
-A patient cannot perform some action on command, but may be able to
perform the action perfectly in a spontaneous situation
-A patient has a limb that is mildly weak (small amount of paresis) but the
motor problems seem to be much worse than suggested by the mild weakness
-A patient has trouble with some sounds, but not others
-A patient loses motor control suddenly for brief periods of time, then regains
it Answer - A patient cannot perform some action on command, but may be
