Answer to Question 1

B
Explanation: Hydrotherapy uses water. Mobilization is used to restore movement to joints and soft tissue. Debridement is the removal of dead or damaged tissue from a wound. Gait training is assisting a patient to learn to walk again or how to use an assistive device to walk.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: Addison's disease is caused by an insufficient amount of adrenal cortex hormones. Hypersecretion of adrenal cortex hormones causes Cushing's syndrome. Hyposecretion of the thyroid gland causes hypothyroidism, and hypersecretion of the thyroid gland causes hyperthyroidism.
