Answer to Question 1

C
The research published by Hawkins and Polemikos in 2002 indicates that teaching children to use self-hypnosis to manage sleeping problems is both possible and effective. Children can use self-hypnosis to address such sleeping problems as difficulty initiating sleep and dealing with sleep terrors.

Answer to Question 2

A
In nursing practice the use of hypnosis is governed by licensure laws in each state. Nurses who practice hypnotherapy must have formal training in the use of the modality. Most often this training is accompanied by a graduate degree and always by a period of supervised work with a faculty member who is an advanced practitioner.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.

Pink eye is a term that refers to conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the thin, clear membrane (conjunctiva) over the white part of the eye (sclera). It may be triggered by a virus, bacteria, or foreign body in the eye. Antibiotic eye drops alleviate bacterial conjunctivitis, and antihistamine allergy pills or eye drops help control allergic conjunctivitis symptoms.
