Answer to Question 1

C
Lack of knowledge or incorrect information contributes to contraceptive failure. Birth control pills, if taken correctly, are equally effective in younger and older females. Males are less likely to find condoms unacceptable. Although some pregnancies are intentional, more often they are not.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The patch should be applied only to the buttocks, back, abdomen, or torso and never on the breasts. The patch is safe for wearing during swimming and bathing. The patch requires application for 1 week before becoming effective.
