Which reflex appears to have survival value for the newborn infant?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rooting reflex, which involves turning the head and searching for a nipple when the cheek or mouth is touched, has survival value for the newborn infant as it helps the baby find a source of nourishment (breast milk or formula) and ensures their survival. The grasping reflex and Babinski reflex are also present at birth, but they do not have the same immediate survival value. The habituation reflex is a generalized term for the process of becoming accustomed to a stimulus over time and is not a specific reflex that infants exhibit.
