Answer to Question 1

B
The distance at which one person is comfortable interacting with another is influenced by age, cultural values, and gender of those interacting. This is categorized by zones: intimate (touch to 18 inches), personal (18 inches to 4 feet), social (4 to 12 feet), and public (12 or more feet).

Answer to Question 2

A
Theodore Fliedner, a pastor in Kaiserwerth, Germany, in 1836, revived the Lutheran Order of Deaconesses to care for the sick in a hospital he founded. These deaconesses became famous because they were the only ones formally educated in nursing.
