Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4

Answer to Question 2

B
Airborne precautions use a variety of controls such as a private room with negative pressure ventilation or filtration, with the door closed, and the use of an N-95 respirator. The respirator is worn to provide a barrier between the nurse's respiratory tract and the pathogenic microorganism.
