4. Women on hormones might experience less acne and hirsutism.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2
Rationale: This age child is not old enough to understand the need for an IV infusion. The stem indicates that the child has been through this painful procedure before,and his reaction to entering the treatment room is based on anticipation of repeat discomfort. The child's behavior is appropriate for this age child.
