Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Rubella is the only infectious disease for which a vaccine is available. There are no vaccines available for toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, or herpesvirus type 2.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Insulin needs decrease during the first trimester, when nausea, vomiting, and anorexia are a factor. Insulin needs increase during the second and third trimesters, when the hormones of pregnancy create insulin resistance in maternal cells. Insulin needs change during pregnancy.
