Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic. Captopril is an ACE inhibitor, digoxin is a digital glycoside, and carvedilol is a beta-blocker.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The water heater should be set to limit household water temperatures to less than 49 C (120 F). At this temperature, it takes 10 minutes for exposure to the water to cause a full-thickness burn. Conversely, water temperatures of 54 C (130 F), the usual setting of most water heaters, expose household members to the risk of full-thickness burns within 30 seconds.
