Answer to Question 1

B
T cells are produced and moved to the injured area, releasing chemical substances and activating other cells to assist in destroying the antigen. T cells also stimulate production of B cells, which produce antibodies specific to the antigen; this process is known as humoral immunity.

Answer to Question 2

B
If a nurse believes a colleague is abusing drugs, the nurse has an obligation to report it to the supervisor so that the colleague can receive assistance from the impaired nurse program in the particular state.
