Answer to Question 1

D
Work stress for nurses happens with work overload, heavy physical work, shift work, patient concerns (dealing with death and medical treatment), and interpersonal problems with other health care professionals and staff.

Answer to Question 2

A
Immunization, the process by which resistance to an infectious disease is produced or increased, often reduces or prevents the transmission of disease from person to person.
