Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Males who have unprotected sex with males is the largest growth group, followed by high-risk heterosexual contact and use of contaminated needles.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
A local, regional, conduction block or spinal anesthesia disrupts sensation to the specific body areas or parts without causing unconsciousness. A local anesthetic may be administered intravenously, rectally, or by inhalation. General anesthesia blocks all body sensations and cause unconsciousness, relaxation, and loss of reflexes.
