Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A description of the experimental protocol should be approved by the hospital's institutional re-view board (IRB). If the study involves humans or animals, state that IRB approval was received prior to collecting data (as is required). A description of the experimental procedure should in-clude the actual steps involved in gathering the data and the time elapsed during each phase of the experiment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
