Answer to Question 1

4
A person who is at least 18 years of age and can make reasoned choices has autonomy and is free to make decisions regarding his own health care. Liberty is a characteristic of autonomy. Justice is an ethical principle that supports all people seeking health care receiving the best treatment available with dignity and respect. Agency is another characteristic of autonomy that means the capacity for intentional action.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D
This test is a useful diagnostic tool for conditions such as colon cancer, upper gastrointestinal ulcers, and localized gastric parasitic infection or intestinal irritation. The amount of bleeding increases with the size of the polyp and the stage of cancer. People with small polyps (less than 1 cm in diameter) bleed scarcely more than those without polyps.
