Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
When using the Doppler ultrasonic stethoscope, the pulse site is found when one hears a swishing, whooshing sound.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Palpable lymph nodes are often normal in children and infants. They are small, firm, shotty, mobile, and nontender. Vaccinations can produce lymphadenopathy. Enlarged, warm, and tender nodes indicate a current infection.
