Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback
A Liquid forms of HIV medications may be foul tasting or have a gritty texture.
Chocolate will help to make these foods more palatable and is liked by most
children.
B Medications should be mixed with nonessential foods.
C Doses of medication should never be skipped.
D Fighting with the child or using force should be avoided. A nonessential food
that will make the taste of the medication more palatable for the child should be
the correct action. The administration of medications for the child with HIV
becomes part of the family's everyday routine for years.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Total or nearly total regression of varicosities is expected after childbirth.
However, headaches might deserve attention.
B Carpal tunnel syndrome is relieved in childbirth when the compression on the
median nerve is lessened. Headaches, however, might deserve attention.
C Periodic numbness of the fingers usually disappears after birth unless carrying
the baby aggravates the condition. Headaches, however, might deserve attention.
D Headaches in the postpartum period can have a number of causes, some of which
deserve medical attention.

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.
