Answer to Question 1

C
The evaluation process will indicate if physiological changes have occurred as a result of treatment and care.

Physical assessments are conducted during an examination to make clinical judgments about a patient's condition.

Answer to Question 2

D
Atheists search for meaning in life through their work and relationships with others.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
