Answer to Question 1

B
An allogeneic bone marrow transplant uses bone marrow collected from a matched healthy donor. If the bone marrow is obtained from an identical twin, it is called syngenic. If the bone marrow is harvested from the patient before treatment, it is called autologous. Bone marrow is not collected using hypoallergenic techniques.

Answer to Question 2

A
Side effects of radiation therapy are caused by damage to healthy cells within the treatment range. Radiation does not affect healthy cells or cancer cells outside the treatment range. The intended effect of radiation therapy is damage to cancer cells in the treatment range.
