Answer to Question 1

C
The client is using complementary therapy. The biofeedback is used to complement biomedical interventions (e.g. analgesic medication). Alternative therapy is used instead of biomedicine, not in conjunction with it. Biomedicine involves only the analgesic medication part of this scenario. Biofeedback is not considered herbal therapy.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale:
1. Families with a history of leukemia might find cord blood banking useful because cord blood, like bone marrow and embryonic tissue, contains regenerative stem cells, which can replace diseased cells in the affected individual.
2. A family with a history of infertility, or one that wishes to select the sex of a future child or avoid a future intrauterine surgery, would not be helped by cord blood banking.
3. A family with a history of infertility, or one that wishes to select the sex of a future child or avoid a future intrauterine surgery, would not be helped by cord blood banking.
4. A family with a history of infertility, or one that wishes to select the sex of a future child or avoid a future intrauterine surgery, would not be helped by cord blood banking.
