Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback

heavily wooded areas.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A These are common fallacies about children and pain.
B These are common fallacies about children and pain.
C Pain is whatever the experiencing person says it is, whenever the person says it
exists. Pain is not questioned in an adult 12 hours after surgery.
D Children may deny pain to the nurse because they fear receiving an injectable
analgesic or because they believe they deserve to suffer as a punishment for a
misdeed. They may refuse to admit pain to a stranger, but readily tell a parent.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
