Quizplus · Accepted Answer

One of the core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is repetitive and rigid behavior, interests, or activities. Another core symptom is reduced capacity for social interaction and communication. Tremors are not a core symptom of ASD, so D is not correct. Therefore, the best choice is E, which includes both A and B as correct.
