Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Sunscreen will protect about 2 hours if not exposed to moisture, such as swimming or sweating. Sunscreens do not guard against melanoma or basal cell carcinoma. UVA protection is not in all products. SPF ratings are not proportional.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Growth hormone is given only when growth hormone deficiency is determined. It cannot be given orally. It antagonizes insulin secretion and thus can lead to the development of diabetes mellitus. It cannot be given after the epiphyses are fused.
