Answer to Question 1

10 mg
10

Answer to Question 2

3 mL/dose.

Global Rationale: mL/dose = 5 mL/25 mg x 15 mg/1 dose. Multiply the numerators (5 x 15 = 75). Multiply the denominators (25 x 1 = 25). 75/25 = 3 mL/dose.

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.
