Answer to Question 1

3
The rotation of sites is used to prevent lipodystrophy, a localized complication of insulin administration characterized by changes in the subcutaneous fat at the site of the injection. The other options are not why site rotation is used.

Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 3, 5
The cardinal signs of the inflammatory response include: rubor or redness; tumor or swelling; dolor or pain; and calor or heat. Loss of function is no longer considered a cardinal sign of the inflammatory response. Scarring is part of the healing response.
