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.
