Answer to Question 1

B
Anesthesia is used to temporarily leave an area of the body insensible to pain or movement.

Answer to Question 2

B
Chronic leukemia, in which the WBC count increases gradually over time, usually occurs in adults; when an acute phase develops, death is imminent. Chemotherapy is the main medical treatment for clients who have chronic leukemia and improves the quality of life but not the length. A bone marrow transplant can be used to treat chronic myelogenous leukemia.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
