Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The muscle is normally considered sterile because it does not normally open to the outside and surgical asepsis is indicated for this procedure. The purpose of maintaining clean technique or medical asepsis is to prevent the spread of disease from one person to another. Disinfection is a process that results in the destruction of most pathogens, but not necessarily their spores.
