Correct Answer: 8
Rationale: The newborn would receive one point because the HR is below 100 bpm, two points for a good cry (respiratory effort), two points for being well flexed (muscle tone), two points for good reflex irritability (reflex response), and one point for a pink body with blue extremities (color).
