Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

B
If the patient has poor sphincter control, position the patient on the bedpan in a comfortable dorsal recumbent position. Patients with poor sphincter control cannot retain all of the enema solution. Administering an enema with the patient sitting on the toilet is unsafe because curved rectal tubing can abrade the rectal wall.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
