Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Nebulization includes both aerosolization and atomization. Aerosolization is the smallest of this form of medication administration, and is smaller than the droplets formed by humidification.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Irrigation is washing out the area with fluid at low pressure that drains back out of the area, such as irrigating a wound or the eye. To instill is to put something into the area that will remain in place long enough for the solution to have an effect, such as instilling medication into the eye. To moisturize is to apply a fluid to replace the lost fluid from the cell, whereas to sterilize is to remove pathogens.
