Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
The dermis regulates body temperature by dilating and constricting capillaries. The eccrine sweat glands regulate body heat by excreting perspiration. Sebaceous (oil) glands secrete sebum, which lubricates the skin and hair and plays a role in killing bacteria. The apocrine sweat glands are a remnant of sexual scent glands.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3, 4

Xyloxylin suspension and Stomafate suspension do not contain tetracycline. Kaiser mouthwash and Stanford mouthwash both contains tetracycline. Listerine antibacterial is not a recommended mouthwash for oropharyngeal pain control.
