Answer to Question 1

D
The statement It must be very difficult to have this happen to you is an example of using the therapeutic communication technique of sharing empathy. It is the ability to understand another person's reality, to accurately perceive unspoken feelings, and to communicate this understanding to the other person.
The question Why are you so upset today? is an example of a nontherapeutic communication technique of asking for explanations.
The response I'm sure that everything will be all right is an example of a nontherapeutic communication technique of giving false reassurance.
The response You shouldn't cry. The wound will heal soon is an example of a nontherapeutic communication technique of giving disapproval.

Answer to Question 2

B
Leverage is an inducing or compelling force that occurs when specific bones, such as the humerus, ulna, and radius, and associated joints, such as the elbows, act together as a lever. Posture is the position of the body in relation to the surrounding space. Isometric contraction causes an increase in muscle tension but no active movement. Muscle tone is the normal state of balanced muscle tension.
