Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Medications injected intravenously into the bloodstream have the fastest action.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The patient's chart is a legal record. It is the major source of information about the patient and the care received while in the hospital. The Kardex card is thrown away when the patient is discharged. It is not a legal document.
