Answer to Question 1

Posted another one can you check that one too? Thanks.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
The nurse should use the subcutaneous route to administer epinephrine for acute bronchospasm. Doses of epinephrine are measured in tenths of a milliliter. A tuberculin syringe is used for measuring and administering these drugs by the parenteral route. The other routes are not appropriate for this situation.
