Answer to Question 1

B
A data entry specialist spends large amounts of time entering data in the computer. Ptosis, dys-phagia, and aphasia are all symptoms associated with myasthenia gravis, but diplopia, or double vision, will cause the patient the most difficulty with using a computer.

Answer to Question 2

C
The external device for fracture reduction allows greater freedom of movement, decreasing the problems of immobility. Healing time and pain are the same as with any other fracture reduction method.
