Answer to Question 1

B
Normal breath sounds include the bronchial breath sounds heard over the sternum, bronchovesicular breath sounds heard over the anterior third of the chest near the sternum and around the scapula, and vesicular breath sounds heard over most of the lungs.

Answer to Question 2

D
The goals of exercise and nutrition therapy are to maintain as near-normal a blood glucose level as possible, achieve optimal serum lipid levels, provide adequate calories to maintain or attain a reasonable weight, to prevent complications of diabetes, and to improve overall health. Oral hypoglycemic agents are used to treat persons with type 2 diabetes that is not controlled with diet and exercise. These agents are meant to supplement diet and exercise, not replace them.
